The Running Public

Meg transitioned from running track and cross country at UConn to setting the current Hyrox World Record. Fresh off her 2nd place finish at the Hyrox Championships a week ago, she walks us through her fitness journey and drops some golden insights into the mindset and dedication needed to be a high level performer in any walk of life. 

We wrap our mini series with the longest common training cycle: The 14 Day Cycle. This plan takes the best of the 7 Day and 10 Day cycles and combines it all into a delightful little microcycle. 

Heart rate training vs RPE. Road shoes vs trail shoes. Mileage vs vert for ultras. Singles vs doubles. Starting out with low mileage vs high mileage as a runner.

Arguably the single most effective use of your training time, the 10 Day cycle is tailor made for nailing your quality sessions and fully recovering in between!

We look back on the characteristics, patterns, and trends of the athletes we’ve worked with who have experienced the most success. We break down how they think, act, and train, and hopefully give you some ideas for optimizing your own training and lifestyle. 

The title is self explanatory! Do you try racing every weekend? Do you find yourself signing up for competitions that have no fitness relationships to each other? We got you!
