Episode Synopsis

Send us a textHey! How's it goin?In this episode I am talking about how much to run leading up to your half marathon or 2-Course Challenge Disney race.I recommend following a training plan that follows the 10% rule, even better when there are deload/taper weeks worked in throughout training so your body can adjust to the added mileage and reduce re-injury.I use an example of a runner building up to 10 miles for their half marathon and then running that distance every other weekend leading up to race day. Learn why this doesn’t optimize their race day experience and what to do instead including: tapering for 3 weeks for the half marathon after the longest run as 10 miles.I compare the taper phase of the training program to Merida’s bow and arrow: you can force it through, you can pull back a little or you can pull back the optimal amount and see how far the arrow goes with each scenario.Free Workshop for 14+ minute per mile runDisney runners wanting to have more time for character stops and build a bigger buffer ahead of the balloon ladies.
