Cross training options for runners.

Hello and welcome to the Peak Endurance Podcast, I’m your host Isobel Ross. A bit about me to start us off! I am well into my taper now, and my volume has decreased significantly, just as I recommend in last weeks podcast. I too find tapers hard but I know how important they are and what a difference they make to how I feel on race day. I love training so it is hard for me to do less but fresh legs, body and mind are imperative on race day. This week I have been reading Matt Fitzgerald’s book: ‘Run Like a Pro (Even If You’re Slow)’ I am absolutely loving this book; honestly anything matt Fitzgerald writes is good. I love his style and how easy to read his books are, yet full of wisdom and knowledge. I am loving it so much I emailed him to see if he would be up for an interview about it and he, of course, said yes! So I will be interviewing him on the 18th May when I will be in recovery from DU and in Iso as I await surgery for a health issue from the start of Covid. So I will have lots of free time and will no doubt love the chance for a chat! I have recently started listening to Oprah Winfrey’s podcast ‘Super Soul’ And am enjoying the variety of guests she has on. What are you reading to and listening to at the moment? Thank you so much KP Bass for your 5-star review and lovely comment: Love the new style Thank you for new style, looking forward to hearing more of them!
