In this episode of Running to the Castle, you'll learn how to approach the “Training” pillar of the Finisher Framework—the part that covers your long runs, speed workouts, and cross training in a way that helps you build endurance without burnout or injury. 

Dr. Ali breaks down what each type of workout is for, how to schedule your week based on your phase of training, and how to make slow, steady progress that doesn’t wreck your body. 

You’ll hear exactly how to structure your week with just 5 workout days—including tips for pacing, progression, and choosing the best types of speed workouts for runDisney runners who use run/walk intervals. 

This episode will help you train smarter and finish stronger—without being exhausted, in pain, or missing the parks.

    Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
    I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
