In this episode of the Marathon Running Podcast, we host a Q&A with a seasoned run coach, covering a wide range of topics relevant to runners at all levels. We dive into why there’s such a significant time gap between Kenyan and Ethiopian marathoners, exploring the factors behind their dominance. We also discuss the pros and cons of using AI versus a real-time coach, the role of HIIT training as we age, and how long you should wait before deciding if a coach or training program is right for you. Other topics include the effectiveness of aqua jogging, strength training with heavy weights, and the debate between high versus low cadence for optimal performance.
