SUCCESS LIES BEHIND THE SIMPLEST THINGS
If you are wondering what lies behind a successful training program for preparing a specific distance or race the answer is way simpler than you might think:
“When it’s easy, it’s easy; when it’s fast, it’s really fast”.
If you are going for an easy run, the pace must EASY, if you are going for a specific workout that’s when you are asked to give your 70 to 100%. The common mistake of most Western runners is keeping the same medium pace for most workouts. Learn how to respect your training program with Head Coach Timo Limo and jump on your next level!
