Listen now
Description
Could the 80/20 method be holding you back? In this episode of 'Conversations About Running', distance coaches Hugo van den Broek and Callum Jones, along with founder of the Kenya Experience running camps, Gavin Smith, dissect the highly popularised 80/20 training method. Many amateur runners have heard about and even practice the 80/20 method and the theory of polarised training but very few have read the research behind it. Luckily, Hugo has, which is why in this episode, like a child's wind-up car, we wind him up and let him go on the subject. Hugo pulls apart the theory and sheds some much needed light on what the research really says and how it should be interpreted by the vast majority of runners 🏃
