When You Can Run Through an Injury, Is Running Bad for Your Knees and More Listener Questions

In today’s episode, Coach Jeff Gaudette is going to be answering
listener questions we’ve received over the last few weeks from
our fans just like you. 


We’ve got some great questions, covering everything from how to
determine if you can run through an injury or not, how to
approach marathon long runs and post run nutrition. 


Plus, if you stick around until the end, Coach Jeff delivers some
interesting training insights from two elite female runners he
coaches who despite running similar times, approach training
drastically differently and what you can learn from this.


Topics we cover:


How to know if you can run through an injury or not

Why you should train to burn fat as a fuel source

How to accomplish this in training and when

Post run recovery

Getting sick after hard workouts

The importance of long-term thinking in your training

Runners with the same PRs but with drastically different
training approaches (and how this applies to your training)

Is running bad for your knees



Don’t forget, if you have questions you’d like our coaches to

runners and athletes to help them optimize their sleep and

And the data on sleep improvement isn’t only from research
papers. Using her whoop device, US Olympic Trials marathon
qualifier Caitlin Keen saw her deep, restorative sleep increase
by 52 minutes when she switched to a Lagoon pillow.

Oladance


If you’re looking for better and safer headphones while you run,
then you need to check out oladance. 


The unique design of their headphones allows you to listen to
your favorite music and podcast while running, yet still hear
everything going on around you so you can stay safe.


But my favorite part is that their open-ear-design means your
ears will never get tired or fatigued, even after 2 hours or more
of listening. That makes them perfect for those super long runs.


Plus, their dynamic driver is 3 x bigger than most headphones,
which allows them to deliver superior sound, while still being
comfortable.

your purchase.
