S2E10 Training For Different Distances
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It's 2025 and we're hitting the trails and roads hard!
In this episode, Matt being the nosy bugger that he is, wants to know what other people have in their training sessions. Because frankly, the nitty gritty of what a 5K runner is doing in their session versus what a 50 mile runner is doing in theirs is really interesting! After all, it's bringing that specificity in that separates a good coach from an online training plan that anyone can download and follow, regardless of their goals and current status. So join us as we pull apart different interval sessions, why the length of your longest run is basically irrelevant, why strength training is important across the board but how it differs from the speedsters (5K) to the foodies (ultras) and lot's of other tidbits that help peak behind the curtain of your running pals training sessions...
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.
