Ep 50: Building Your Running Base - Easy Miles, Big Results

Building a strong running base is one of the most important steps you can take as a runner, whether you’re just starting out, coming back from an injury, or resetting after a big training cycle. In this episode, I break down what base training is, why easy miles matter, and how long you should spend in this phase. You’ll learn the key goals of base building, how it sets you up for future success, and simple ways to approach your easy runs with confidence and avoid boredom! If you’ve ever wondered why coaches talk so much about “easy miles,” or how slowing down now can lead to faster times later, this episode is for you.
