Let's face it. Most of us aren’t Olympians. We’re parents and people with full time jobs, and we’re not in our twenties any more.
But we still want to get the best out of ourselves every time we train and line up at the start.
What’s the best way to do that?
Today we are going to talk to John Davis, coach and writer, who holds a PhD in human performance. His new book is called Marathon Excellence for Everyone and I’m going to ask him if everyone really can be excellent at it.
We also talk about:
Regular runners can get really good at the marathon,
How advances in science have made massive changes in the sport, and
We’ll go over some marathon training myths and mistakes that might be costing you minutes

RECENT REVIEWS:
My Go-to podcast
I’ve been running for the last 10yrs, vegan for 3 and this last year I’ve been dialing in my casual running to actually training. Being able to have The Planted Runner podcast as a resource has been priceless and it’s kept me entertained and inspired on long drives, long runs, and during work. Claire clearly has a wealth of knowledge and I really enjoy learning from her and the various guests she has on the show! Definitely worth a listen!
