Why You Should Never Miss The Long Run


Listen Later

The long run isn’t just about logging miles — it’s where the real training happens.


This is the session that sets the foundation for everything else. It's your chance to simulate race conditions, test your gear, experiment with hydration and fueling strategies, and dial in your pacing. In short, the long run is the perfect opportunity to prepare both your body and your mind for race day. Think of it as your weekly rehearsal on the battlefield — not just a workout, but a strategic test run.


In this video, we break down how we approach the long run to get the most out of every session. Whether you're training for your first marathon or looking to shave minutes off your PB, these tips will help you run smarter, not just longer.


➡️ We cover:


How to structure your long runs


What gear and kit we use and why


Nutrition and hydration strategies that actually work


Adjusting pacing to match your race goals


Mental tactics to build resilience and confidence


Grab your shoes, fill those bottles, and let’s dive into how to make your long runs count!
