Mile for mile... the long run might just be the most important run of the week. It builds aerobic capacity, improves neuromuscular resilience, and facilitates metabolic flexibility - 3 of the most important tools you need as a distance runner.

In this episode, we discuss the benefits in detail and then break down the tactics by answering these 6 questions about the long run:

  • How long?
  • How many or how often?
  • How fast?
  • Can you go too fast?
  • How do you fuel? Hydrate?
  • How do you incorporate long run workouts?

Make sure you aren't wasting miles. Listen to this one before your next long run!
