Ever wondered why your 10K run or half-marathon times aren't improving? The answer could lie in your lactate threshold. Our guest, pro running coach Andrew Wren, is here to demystify this often overlooked aspect of training. He shares his insights on the importance of lactate threshold as the anchor for our running zones. Andrew reveals how even the slightest changes in a runner's routine can boost this threshold, enhancing running times and, surprisingly, mental health.
But it's not all about the lactate threshold. In our chat, we tackle the intriguing world of individual metrics in running. Discover how your age, the fatigue you're experiencing or even that glass of wine on Friday night can impact your running performance. More importantly, learn why tracking small progress metrics can have a massive impact. We highlight the advantages of supplementing running with activities like strength training, plyometrics.
