from The Alchemical Life · host Abigail Crowe

SummaryIn 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.
