In this week's episode of the Better With Running podcast, hosts Chris Armstrong and Zac Newman welcome back fellow Run2PB coach Forest Robinson for an honest and detailed conversation about navigating high-volume marathon training and his coaching time at Run2PB so far.
Chris talks through his week and offers a sincere apology. After years of good-natured mockery and "slanderous comments" about swimming pools, Chris admits he was "incredibly wrong." Following a recovery dip on a hot day, he confessed that the leisurely pool time was "absolutely magnificent", whilst Zacca continues to put down some consistent weeks.
The spotlight turns to Forest Robinson, who provides an in-depth update on his focused training block for the upcoming Valencia Marathon. After an unpredictable racing season, Forrest is laser-focused on his major target and gives listeners an exclusive look into his preparation, detailing a brutal 3x15 minute session. Beyond his own running, Forrest shares his rewarding journey since officially joining the Run2PB coaching community in July. He reflects on the challenges and joys of personalizing training plans for a diverse stable of athletes, emphasizing the importance of a holistic approach that considers every runner's life demands, making this episode a must-listen for anyone striving for consistent, healthy running.
