Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Running to the Castle, Dr. Ali recaps a rare 100%-completion week of Proof of Time half marathon training, hitting every cardio and strength workout on the plan. She breaks down a tough 10K race pace tempo run, an early-morning cross-training walk with Levi, and a strength day where she pushed to a full 45-minute session.

She also shares a genuinely surprising long run comparison to last year, plus a hydration hack for beating the Las Vegas heat.
