I just asked a question on social media: Are you training to race, or do you find you’re racing your training? How do you keep yourself in check on what are supposed to be those long, slow runs? How do you ensure that you’re training in a way that benefits race day goals instead of running like you’re racing every time you strap on your shoes, and leave yourself flat on race day?

These are points which I hope to delve into over the coming months to help make clear my vision for an effective, sustainable training program using breath running techniques. I’ve been using these techniques with my athletes for over two years now, and have found them to be very effective. I look forward to sharing these insights!
