Listen "Different runners for different surfaces"

Episode Synopsis

Are trail runners as good as road runners? An article published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36515604/) looked at differences in economy, biomechanics, strength and power between trail runners and road runners. I talk a bit about this article and the differences in running different disciplines. I also provide a recap on how I'm getting on with my New Year's resolution to run at least 1 km each day and, I hope, provide some useful insights and advice.
