In this episode of the Faster Beyond 50 Podcast, Brad Nadauld and Coach Lindsey Parry dive into some fascinating and often overlooked aspects of running training for runners over 50.
We answer listener questions covering a wide range of topics, including:
- How to integrate soccer, football, and other sports like paddle and tennis into your running training plan without derailing your marathon or ultra goals.
- What "the leans" are — a condition that can end ultra races — and practical strategies to minimize your risk.
- Zone 2 training for beginners: Should complete beginners focus on Zone 2, or is it smarter to take a different approach? We break down the emerging trends (and the risks) so you can train smarter and avoid injury.
- How multiple COVID infections can impact your running heart rate, training paces, and recovery — and what to do if you’re struggling with slower times and heart rate drift.
