Episode Notes
We wrap up this mini-series on polarization with the final 5 questions for you.
First, we cover Chris's experience at his first stage race - Moab Run the Rocks - put on by the great folks at TransRockies Running. It is a 3-day stage race event covering ~54 miles of trails over 3 days in/around Moab, Utah. Chris had a blast and shares a little bit about his experiences there in the first 25 minutes of this one.
Then, we get to the final questions on polarization. Are you polarizing your training enough to optimize it?
The full list of questions (including the 4 from part 1):
a. Are enough of your miles easy vs. hard?
b. Are you varying the distances of your runs appropriately?
c. Are your easy miles easy enough?
d. Are you doing weekly strides?
e. Are you working faster and slower than race pace in workouts?
f. Are you training for a variety of race distances over time?
g. Is there a difference between your peak training and your post-race recovery mode?
h. Are you balancing stress and rest well in training?
i. Are your race strategies structured to allow you to start smart and finish strong?
Now, ask yourself: how did I do on the pop quiz? If you missed on a question or two (or more), then pick 1 area to work on and go from there. You won't regret it!
