Casual Runners Appreciation Podcast

Zone 2 and other influencer bullshit

Shannon Beattie & Hayden McGregor Season 1 Episode 8

In this episode, we discuss some classic running cliches and if they have any merit:

  • Run slow to run fast
  • 80% easy / 20% hard
  • Respect the distance 
  • No pain no gain
  • The only bad run is the one you didn’t do
  • The race is the reward for the training


But first, we CRAP on about:

  • Doing your threshold during a Parkrun 
  • Excuses to stop for water in the middle of a session 
  • Shannon straight up not having a good time with her training
