Uptempo Talks - Why Do Runners Do That? #1

Published: Oct. 19, 2022, 7:13 a.m.

Do you ever notice fellow runners taking an interesting approach to a particular run or training block? Or using certain recovery tools or consuming certain drinks and foods in their quest to improve and reach peak performance? In any of these circumstances, maybe you\u2019ve asked yourself: \u201cWhy do you runners do that?\u201d\xa0

Well, this episode of Run to the Top is another Up Tempo Talk with Runners Connect coaches Dylan Belles and Ruari Moynihan answering 3 of those burning questions. First, they address why runners drink beet juice and whether it's performance enhancing, then they tackle why runners do two-a-days and specifically why they double on their long run days, and finally they examine whether it's beneficial to schedule and execute back to back workout runs in a training block.
