Summary

You might recall George from episode 6 of the Strength Running podcast.

We talked about a lot:

What’s the ideal length long run during marathon training? And half marathon training?
Should you keep running marathons if your ultimate goal is to run a faster marathon?
If your long runs are already 15+, what types of LR’s should you focus on during a marathon season?
How long should you run at tempo pace during training?
What is the optimal marathon pacing strategy?

George wanted help planning for a PR attempt at the half marathon. Episode 6 was a “behind the scenes” coaching call where we strategized on how he could make it happen.

Now, he’s back on the podcast to see if my ideas actually worked!

For a long time, George’s episode was the most downloaded show because folks loved listening “over my shoulder” as we strategized.

And I think you’ll enjoy this show just as much.
