Summary

"We don't train so that the race doesn't hurt, we train to tolerate it." - Michael Scott, probably. Far too often, we improve our fitness and then go into a competition imagining how awesome we are going to feel, only to get smacked in the face by how much racing still hurts. Today's episode deals with every aspect of that, from mindset and mental tricks, to race strategy and training focus. We spend the first 25 minutes talking all about the Running Public Training Plan that dropped today on therunningpublic.com. We explain the set-up and training style as well as how to use the plan. If you want to skip straight to the meat and potatoes of this episode, fast forward to 25:00.
