Listen "#39: Strength for runners 101 with running strength coach Ollie McCarthy"
Episode Synopsis
Strength is so important for runners. But why? It was something I did not do at the start of my running journey but have found it invaluable in recent years.
To explain the benefits, what to do to get started and common misconceptions, I am joined by running and strength coach Ollie McCarthy. Ollie has recently completed the North Coast 110km ultramarathon and his insights to strength training are invaluable.
