067. Coach Lab with Daniel Rowland | How to manage, handle and execute training

Running long - A trail & ultra running talk

We've set our goals for the season and the strategy - or training plan - in order to achieve them. It's now time to train!

How can we better handle and execute our training plan? How can se make informed decisions on whether we should take a rest day or not, whether we're running too much or too hard, what should we do if life gets in the way and we need to skip one or two sessions? What should we prioritize and what are the things that matter the most when we are out there trying to achieve a training session?

How do we know when and if we should change plans and deviate from the program?

We like to look at training in a holistic way, and there's always a certain level of independence when it comes to managing your training. Communication with your coach is key, and so are many other areas of your life that are not directly related to training, but have an impact on it: nutrition, sleep, recovery, work and family life.

These are the main topics of discussion of this episode in collaboration with Daniel Rowland, a Vert.run coach and an accomplished endurance athlete.

Enjoy!
