Practical tips & tricks for peak performance #186

from The Tea & Trails Podcast Hosted by Edwina Sutton & Gary Thwaites

This week on the Tea & Trails Podcast, Eddie and Gary share the tips and tricks that keep them going when training and racing get tough. There’s a Lakeland 100–themed Brew With the Coaches question, plus an update on how their own training is shaping up as the Northern Traverse draws closer. Spoiler: it features a severed head, exploding bridges, a visit to Greg’s Hut, and an unreasonable number of long runs.
