このエピソードについて
We are approaching the end of July and many runners at this point have their races set on the calendar. I personally, will be running the Newport Jersey City Half Marathon this September, along with a good chunk of my RunwithKat clients. And as I have been programming, I couldn’t stop thinking about how many runners during half marathon/marathon season pick together random workouts as they build their programming with no true intent or purpose behind their workout selection. So, in this episode, I brought back the extremely knowledgeable Dr. Abu Guerges to discuss speed workouts for the Half Marathon Distance in Intermediate Runners
