Ep. 277 - The Walk / Run Gradient

At the gym the other day, someone asked me:“Got any advice for a fat guy who wants to start running… asking for a friend?” 😄That sparked a convo about something I always teach runners—whether you’re training for your first 5K or your first 100-miler:👉 Start with walking.👉 Build from there.👉 Use the Walk/Run Gradient.In this episode, I’m breaking down my favorite strategy for building endurance without wrecking your body in the process. We’re talking about:Why walking workouts absolutely countWhat people get wrong about “time on feet”How to use the walk/run gradient to level up safelyWhy this applies to every distance, from 5K to 200MThis is the foundation I use with clients inside my She Runs Ultras coaching membership—and honestly?
