What listeners will find here
When rehab is done but running still hurts: Mark O’Mahony on the missing step
Return to running after injury is the focus here, especially the awkward stretch between finishing rehab exercises and handling actual running again. Mark O’Mahony explains how he uses pain, morning stiffness, and small training changes to guide a comeback without pretending every problem has a simple exercise fix.
Alistair Brownlee’s case for slower easy runs and simpler race fueling
Easy running, heat prep, and fueling are the core of this conversation with Alistair Brownlee. He explains why many amateurs still run their easy days too hard, why hard sessions matter less than consistency, and how he simplified fueling after Kona.
Why forcing a push-off may be sabotaging your running form
Running form is the focus here, with Fredrik Zillén arguing that many common fixes—especially pushing off harder—can make running less efficient. The conversation explores what actually changes speed, why good technique should feel easier quickly, and how to assess your own form with a phone.
When “overtraining” might really be a fuelling problem
This episode looks at how under-fuelling can mimic overtraining, from hard-feeling easy runs to frequent illness and inconsistent sessions. Dr Trent Stellingwerff explains energy availability, common warning signs, bone-stress risk, and a practical first step runners can try.
Are your training zones off? A case for using ventilation instead
Training zones are the focus here, with Arnar Lárusson arguing that percentage-based heart rate or VO2max zones can miss the mark. He explains VT1 and VT2, how breathing patterns may guide effort, and what that could mean for easy runs, marathon work, and progress over time.
