Episode 39: Chris Twiggs - Ready to set a PR in your next ultra? Listen to Chris, 17 x finisher of Hardrock 100.

Is it okay to walk during an ultra? Is it okay to walk during training as a runner? What if you could set PRs in your races, regardless of the distance, by adding in a planned walk part in it? Would you? Join us as we learn from Chris Twiggs, Chief Training Officer of Jeff Galloway coaching, everything we can about the art of run-walk-run. Chris explains how run-walk-run is a deliberate pacing strategy that starts from the beginning of a race, how to choose and adjust ratios using the “Magic Mile” and a 30-second walk break guideline, and how pacers and tools like a Gym boss timer can reinforce execution late in ultras. Oh, and we would have been dumb not to talk about what it takes to finish the Hardrock 100 17 times as Chris prepares to take on his 18th running this year. We talk training from Florida, acclimation, stair and treadmill work, and a key underestimated factor of the course that you need to listen to the episode to hear.Join us and don't forget to hit subscribe and like.
