You’re not alone—and today, I’m going to show you exactly why your long runs might be working against your progress and how one small change can completely transform your training.In this video, I break down a real example from a viewer: a 24-mile run with 20 miles steady and 4 at marathon pace.

What Most Runners Get Wrong: Why your long run might not be delivering results.3. Three Smarter Long Run Alternatives: Proven formats that maximize adaptation.4.
