Episode Description from the Publisher

Sarah wraps up this three-part mini-series with a deep dive into her experience of running the Copenhagen Half Marathon, as part of the World Athletics Road Running Championships. After a challenging training block, Sarah wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Her goal was simply to get out there, see what she could do, and enjoy the experience of racing through such an amazing city. But would all of that change as she stood on the start line?And with Olympian Andy Baddeley pacing her, what could possibly go wrong?Rick shares his experience of supporting Sarah from the sidelines - although he only managed to see her half as many times as he was supposed to!The team also dive into how to effectively recover after a race, both physically and mentally, and why giving yourself time to reset is just as important as the training itself.Supported by ASICS.
