If you are a ‘repeat offender’ with running niggles and injuries... If you are frustrated with a plateau of results... Or, if perhaps you are simply intimidated by running and believe it just isn’t a sport for you, then today’s show can change everything - for the good. Matt outlines a clear path to demystify and rewrite your approach to run training that will reduce injury risk, amplify the fun, and forge a path to the results you want. In order to rewrite the narrative around run training, Matt first describes the challenges of the single-sport approach to running, including: High-risk of injury Limited levers to pull if you are sidelined It is tough to nail the BEST value training sessions As a result, many runners slug through their miles with poor form, ever-increasing cost, a miserable attitude, higher trauma, and greater injury risk. No wonder folks become disenchanted and lose confidence in the process. Part two of the episode outline the solution - A Reimagined Multisport Approach to Running: The four components of a successful multisport approach to running Keys to putting the four components into action Be warned: To embrace and adopt this approach will require bravery and the courage to do it differently than the books, go against the grain of common perceptions, and even against the well-meaning voices of your more experienced friends who are likely to poo-poo the approach. This isn’t a quick hit. It is going to take patience, but you will improve, enjoy the journey more, and be in a better position to stay healthy.  Let’s do it, team.   Episode Resources: This episode is sponsored by our collaboration with INSIDE TRACKER. Inside Tracker and Purple Patch - Receive 25% off their services with code: PURPLEPATCHPRO25 Bike and Run Squad Launching in January 2022.
