Originally on YouTube here https://youtube.com/live/-fBSUjIF0qI
1 More easy volume (slow running and walking) in zone one
2 Sleep, one of the biggest things for recovery, more than gadgets and potions
3 Nutrition - deep dive on your day to day nutrition not just workouts
4 Daily mobility recovery - stretching, foam roller yoga 10 mins morning and eve
5 Strides, not high intensity but puts snap and spring in the legs
6 Fuelling the gut - improve ability to take on carbs during training
7 Strength! At least two strength sessions per week, 20-30mins
8 Mind - ultra marathons are a mental as well as a physical challenge. Need resilience
9 Cross-training - non-running activities are also really important
10 Fun! Even the elites have to enjoy it, enjoy training and racing
