Instant Coaching with Artificial Intelligence: Racefox Co-founder Magnus Jonsson

What is it about runners and data? Do we love data because it’s
simply the most tangible evidence of our abilities? Is it just
another way to extend our run experience by reliving a race or
training run? Or is it something more, something that can
actually change us into even better runners for the rest of our
lives?


Today, on Run to the Top Podcast we will speak with Magnus
Jonsson, co-founder of Racefox, a wearable, artificial
intelligence platform that responds to your running style and
gives immediate feedback on how you can run better, faster, more
effectively, and with fewer injuries.


Artificial intelligence may sound like something from outer space
but, of course, it is with us every day and affects our lives in
many ways. Magnus and his company have gone even farther into
coaching runners via artificial intelligence. Algorithms,
technology and science take us into a new dimension that allows
immediate interpretation of massive amounts of data and
classification of that data into personal information that can be
used for immediate improvement as you run. This real-time
coaching can help us stay injury free and improve incrementally
by making focused changes, unique to our own bodies, whether
elite or beginner.


It’s not as unbelievable as it may sound. Listen as we delve into
Magnus’ and Racefox’s world of artificial intelligence and
improved running.
