Episode 34: A Need For Speed- How to Get FAST

Abigail Crowe

Summary

In this episode, I dive into my current speed training journey as I prep for an upcoming mile race. I get real about why speed work matters even for us endurance folks, break down what my weekly training actually looks like, and talk through the struggle of trying to hit intervals when it's blazing hot outside. I also share what I've learned about fueling properly and why recovery days are just as important as the hard stuff. Basically, I'm figuring out how to push hard without burning out, and I want to hear about your own speed training wins and disasters too. COMMENT BELOW
