Phil Maffetone on Why We Should Run Slow

One of the most frequently asked questions Jason and I get at is our opinion of the Maffetone Method. You may have heard of Dr. Phil Maffetone and his unusual training philosophy, which put simply suggests that slow running will make you faster.
It sounds a little out there, but since first reading one of his books a few years ago, I've heard from complete beginners and elite runners who have all had success training with the Maffetone Method. Even Rich Roll used it while training for the Epic 5.
So in this most recent training cycle, which I hope will lead to a , that I've integrated many of these ideas into my own training.
Today I sit down with Phil Maffetone to discuss his approach to training, and learn more about why you need to run slow in order to run fast.
