189: How to Run Faster With Less Effort

Both Sarah and Rick ran their respective half marathon and one-mile races in Copenhagen, spending most of their races in Zone 4. They take a look at what they could work on to improve their running economy, with the goal of running faster, using less effort, and becoming more efficient in their next training block and race.

Andy feels a little left out with Sarah and Rick introducing new features over the last few weeks, so he decides to bring one of his own to the table… Andy’s Argument. It sparks a lively debate and uncovers one of Rick’s dark truths: he doesn’t log his warm-ups or cool-downs. Much to Sarah’s disgust!
