Why Triathletes Should NEVER Do Running Intervals
from Get Fast Podcast - Triathlon, Ironman & Cycling Coaching Advice · host TriVelo Coaching
A podcast to help you Train Smarter and Race Faster. Hosted by expert Triathlon coach, Australian Ironman Champion and 15 x Aus Age group Champion Gerard Donnelly, and his son, multiple Triathlon + Cycling Aus Age Group Champion Jordy Donnelly. In this episode, we break down real case studies from our athletes who smashed their run times—without hammering intervals or piling on big mileage. You'll hear how one athlete ran back-to-back PBs off limited run volume and a strong bike base, and how another broke through a plateau running just 30–40k per week after injury. If you’re chasing a marathon PB, coming back from injury, or deep in triathlon training, this will give you a fresh, proven perspective on what actually makes you faster.
