If you\u2019ve been tracking write ups in the media or public sentiment on all the message boards out there, then you know double threshold workouts are all the rage right now and given the moment we\u2019re in, I thought it would be good to have RunnersConnect Head Coach Michael Hammond on the show to break everything down and help us determine whether it\u2019s something this audience should consider for training purposes.\xa0

It\u2019s a wide-ranging conversation with Michael, we cover a lot, but some of the specifics discussed include:

• the backstory of how double-threshold workouts became popular in the US
• how double thresholds work, where they\u2019re inserted in training blocks, and what the purported benefits are
• what to do in between workouts and how to assess whether it\u2019s a type of day you want to insert into your own block
• the differences between a pro runner and an amateur runner attempting to double threshold and what to consider in these different scenarios
• the super shoe effect on double thresholds

And much more! Coach Michael brings a lot of wisdom to this episode. If you\u2019ve been curious given the increasing popularity of this topic, this episode is for you!

Ask yourself - do you get enough green veggies each day?

I'll admit, I don't. It's tough to fit all of those greens in with an active and busy lifestyle.

But getting in your fruits + veggies is SO crucial as a distance runner for recovery, digestion, and optimal performance.

That's where Athletic Greens is a gamechanger. One scoop has 75 bioavailable vitamins, minerals, and whole food-sourced ingredients including a multivitamin, multimineral, probiotic, green superfood blend, and more.

That means fewer stomach issues, more focus and energy throughout the day (because the workday matters just as much as the morning run), and overall ... just feeling healthier.

Look, if you're struggling to get those fruits + veggies in - or if you keep buying them but they always go bad in the fridge - Athletic Greens will make getting those micronutrients simple and delicious.
