Listen "#35: Embracing the muck: Everything you need to know about XC (cross country)"
Episode Synopsis
Today's solo episode gives you all the info and nuance about what XC is, the good points and the bad points and some of my tips to get you through and get the most out of it.
XC is completely different from road racing but it can be fun (and not!) too. If you've been following my bonus series, you may be wondering what all the fuss is about.
Today I give you an insight into exactly what it is, who it is for (spoiler - it can be for anyone!) and what you should do to prepare and how to race it.
If you want to improve in your next race and want personalised help in training, nutrition and mindset designed to get you faster, further and stronger straight away, message me at www.instagram.com/therunningrules or see www.therunningrules.com/coaching
