Description

For runners preparing for any of the big Autumn Marathons, our podcast will help
1. Guide them through their marathon training journey.
2. What matters most at each point over the final 15 weeks.
3. What should be happening and changing in training for a first-timer, an improver and a performance runner.
4. Mistakes to avoid.
5. Training sessions to do before the next episode.
The podcast series will hopefully feel like one coaching conversation unfolding over the marathon preparation block.

Its´ time for the Big Taper ahead of the Big Day. In this weeks´ episode we chat about:Reducing accumulated loadPreserving the qualities you've developed, and sharpening freshness. Listen is as we discuss how the taper is a key element of the Marathon training block and how its purpose is not to gain new fitness or to stop moving, but to reveal the fitness already built by removing fatigue.With René Borg and Eoin Flynn from Running Coach Ireland
In last weeks episode we asked the question - "Does everyone need a 20-mile or 32-kilometre long run?" To help answer the questions we discussed the following:No — the number itself isn't the point; the point is what the run is meant to rehearse or develop for race day.For some runners that distance is genuinely useful; for others, especially slower runners, it's a disproportionate muscular and time cost relative to the benefit.The better question than “how far” is: what is this specific long run run supposed to teach the body this week?Tune in now to our Ep 5 Highlights Show With René Borg and Eoin Flynn from Running Coach Ireland.

In last week´s episode we took a deep dive on how to find your Marathon Pace for training over the next few weeks and whether that will be the same or different on race day.We chatted about how Marathon Pace is an output of current fitness, durability, fuelling and conditions. It is not created by choosing a finish time and our key question is: Are you training at the pace you’ve earned, or the pace you hope to run?Enjoy the listen and enjoy the miles.With René Borg and Eoin Flynn from Running Coach Ireland.
