Want to sign up to a race, but not sure where to begin? So often signing up to a race, be it 5km or a marathon, is the start of your running journey, but it can be a daunting prospect: Am I runner-enough to enter a race? When should I start training? What should I do, or not do to avoid injury? What should I do differently for different distances? How hard to push and how soon? Even simply overcoming the 60 minute mark on a run. This week's expert guest is Anthony Fletcher, founder of One Track London and coach to countless fitness professionals and Olympic hopefuls. Fletch is here to help you out of the starting blocks. From treadmills to the running track and the importance of mixing this up, this first episode is here to help you find you pace, and pick your race. Listen to this podcast on a run? Good news. Every show now includes a WELL Chill guided stretch at the end of the show. This week the brilliant Annie Clarke, of Mind Body Bowl leads you through a yoga flow for tight hamstrings and sore legs.
