Most beginner runners assume that training at a higher intensity is a good thing; it must be, right? Wrong. Training at the appropriate intensity is one of the main keys to success, but if you are a new runner, you may find it hard to control intensity because, for you, any running is intense. In this podcast I explain the optimal training intensity for beginners and how to achieve that intensity. Training at that intensity will result in a variety of payoffs, not the least of which is a much improved running experience during the first few months.
