Episode #232: The Church of the Long Run

The long run might be the most important element of any training program. And yet, many of us and many training programs aren't optimizing it. Or worse, the long run is executed in a way (often by running it too fast) that is counter-productive to training. In this episode, we talk about why the long run is so important and then how to get the most out of it. I answer the important questions on the what, when, how often, how long, and how fast of the long run. Plus, at the end, I talk about ways to optimize this most important run of the week.
