#20 Holly Stables - how to run a marathon... and not!
In this episode, Nick welcomes his own coach and good friend, Holly Stables onto the podcast and talks all things marathon!
Holly is a former "pro" (she doesn't like that word!) marathon runner and sheds light on her pro career, some of the highs and lows of the training and racing, and throughout she shares some of her tips that you can apply to your own training!
Best Quotes:
"Training for a road marathon is the hardest distance to train for"
"A lot of my runs are fucking slow!"
"You won't find 10x400m in your plan!"
Right, that's us done. If that was useful… share it. Stick it in your club WhatsApp, send it to that mate who's always getting injured three weeks before race day. You know the one ;)
If you want to go deeper on any of this, Nick puts out videos every week on YouTube, and the entire team of coaches are sharing helpful tips on their instagram channels... links below. And if you're thinking you actually need a proper plan and someone in your corner… we've got Guided Coaching from 97 quid a month, right up to full one-to-one coaching with the coach of your choice. Either way, maximummileagecoaching.com is where you want to be.
See you on the next one.
