Description

Want a better year without burning out? Zoë and TJ share a practical, five-step blueprint to use your transition season to set up your best race year—without quitting running or living in the gray zone. You’ll learn how to keep frequency high (with easy intensity), sketch a long-range plan (1–3 A-races, smart tune-ups), match workouts to the right phase, and treat recovery like training so adaptations actually happen. We also tackle Hot-or-Not topics trail runners ask about: super shoes on road workouts, whether a shoe “quiver” really prevents injuries, and the truth about fueling with olive oil or swapping gels for candy. (Short version: practice what you’ll race with, and don’t copy Kilian.) If you’re planning a 50K, 100K, or 100M, you’ll hear when “real/solid” foods can help and why gut training matters. Subscribe for evidence-based coaching you can actually use.
