111. Common misconceptions in training for trail and ultra running

In this episode we talk about some common misconceptions in training for trail and ultras.

With the recent increase in participation in trail and ultrarunning and more and more people coming to trail running from the roads or other endurance sports, team sports, or from being sedentary, we felt a need to discuss some common myths and not always accurate ideas about training for trail and ultras, such as that training for trails and ultras will make you slow, that you have to live in the mountains in order to succeed at trail running, that you have to commit to either roads or trails.


If you have any further questions, topics or doubts that you would like us to discuss here on the podcast, please let us know and get in touch! You can send us a message on Instagram, or in question box on spotify where you can submit your questions.
