Training Smarter: Recovery, Hills & Race Day Prep | The Active You Ep. 6
Notas del episodio
Episode 6 of The Active You is packed with everything from miles to mindset. We kick things off talking about what we’ve been running in, including the New Balance 1080v15 and the Ellipse, a great option for younger runners or anyone looking for solid performance at a more approachable price point.
We dive into how training helps calm race day nerves, why recovery matters more than you think, and the role things like massages and healing play in staying consistent. We also talk about why slow miles still count, how hills can make you a stronger runner, and why showing up matters.
We get into the balance between running solo and running with a group, the accountability that comes with it, and how having a routine can elevate your training. Plus, we touch on testing your nutrition before race day, running with or without headphones, and dialing in what works best for you.
To wrap it up, we cheers with some incredible beers from Chandler St. Breweries and talk about what we’ve been loving lately.
Whether you’re training for a race or just trying to stay consistent, this episode is full of tips to help you keep moving forward.
