Summary
Trying to mesh your summer vacation with your training plan, like Elizabeth? Dimity and Sarah have it all mapped out, along with a great gear analogy to explain running based on RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion), in response to Dena’s question. Or maybe you’re like Liza, looking to learn when/how to skip or modify workouts during race-prep. Listen to this episode!
Dimity details the (literal) ups and downs of a Central Oregon hike before the first question around 10:03. Here’s our half-marathon training programs. To record a question, please call 470-BADASS1(470-223-2771).
