Summary

"Nearly all runners do their slow runs too fast, and their fast runs too slow." – Born To Run

We start with a very detailed discussion about Zone 2 workouts, including what it means, why it works, and how to do it. We also get into allergies, HIIT workouts, and cross-training as it applies to triathlon. We also take a close look at power meters for running. Do they work? How do they work? Are they necessary?

Topics:

Allergy face
Zone 2 Running and everything you need to know to understand and execute it
HIIT Classes/Workouts
Power Meters for Running - are they a useful tool?
Learning your Outputs before adding more inputs
Rowing as a supplement
Triathlon specific cross-training
Tips for staying in Zone 2
