Chris Bennett: Nike Running's Global Head Coach

from RunPod

Chris Bennett is Nike Running's global head coach and one of the most recognisable voices in the sport... the man who has talked countless runners through first miles, hard miles and the miles they nearly didn't start.This week he joins Jenni Falconer to talk about the history of one of the worlds largest sports brands, his own running story, the coaching philosophy behind it, and his book 'This Is About Running. This Is Not About Running.'Expect real, usable coaching from someone who does it for a living: how to build a running habit that survives real life, what actually matters in training, how to think differently about the runs that don't go to plan, and why the benefits of lacing up so often have very little to do with running at all.Whether you're chasing a PB, a first 5K or just a bit of headspace, this one will change how you approach your next run!Use code RUNPOD at eightsleep.com/runpod for up to £350 off the Pod 5
