There are so many opinions on training and nutrition these days. How do you know what’s really right for you?

Today, we talk about how we’ve sorted through the weeds and developed our own coaching philosophies based on racing and coaching thousands of athletes. What do you really believe in your heart and gut? It’s hard to stay true to those principles with so many outside influences. We get into going with your instincts, learning from mistakes, training in a way that’s right for you, racing to your capabilities, and talk about why everyone wants to blame nutrition or the run. Why do you get cramps? Why is your neck and back sore? Taper for dummies.
