In this episode, I start with an intro that includes:
- A quick recap of NCAA Champs in Austin, TX.
- A recap of the 10K Road Champs for US women... shout-out to Sara Hall for the win!
- Some final respects to Gabe Grunewald whose husband Justin recently announced she was in her final days after a long journey with cancer.
Then, I turn to an interview with Jason Fitzgerald from the Strength Running podcast to talk about strength training for runners. Our discussion includes answers to these questions (and more):
- What are the different types of strength training for runners?
- How runners should start and then build within their strength work, including periodization for races?
- Why power-related lifting is so critical for runners to build speed and late-race staying power?
- How often and when to lift?
- What moves are most important?
- How to incorporate a dynamic warm-up into your training?
Here are links to Jason's work and sample routines as well as the podcast of me on his show:
