Hey Reader, it's Nick here.
I’m trying a new format this week to deliver more value in less time: 3 ideas from me, 2 workouts to try, and 1 question to consider.
The format is shamelessly stolen from James Clear but adapted to a running context.
If you like it, let me know and I’ll keep this rhythm going.
Here are 3 ideas to think about, 2 workouts to try and 1 question to consider...
3 Ideas From Me
I.
"Your second session of the week reveals your recovery more than your watch does.”
II.
“Everyone can stay consistent when they're getting better. Champions stay consistent when they're not.”
III.
“A slower pace done with focus beats a faster pace done distracted.”
2 Workouts To Try
I.
Lactate Controlled Intervals 25 x 400 m @ ~threshold pace, with 30 seconds jog as recovery.
Build lactate tolerance and pacing control. Great in the build phase.
II.
Post-Long Run Strides - Finish your next long run with 4 x 20s strides at 5K effort.
Trains turnover and stiffness while fatigued — zero extra volume.
1 Question For You
“If you had to cut your weekly volume by 50%, but get the same results. What would you keep?”
Should I keep going with this format?
Reply and tell me what you think — “love it” or “meh” is enough.
Until next week,
Nicklas
PS: Dozens of runners are using my plans right now to train smarter and race faster.
