Manage episode 501620242 series 3646081
In this episode of the Top Flight Show, host Rich Morrell is joined by Chris Parr and Cameron Allan to dive into the journey from shorter-distance racing to the marathon. They break down why you can’t just “blag” a marathon, the respect the distance demands, and the significant adjustments athletes must make when stepping up in mileage.
The discussion covers the unique challenges of marathon training, from building consistent habits to balancing endurance with race day strategy. They explore how the marathon truly is a race of two halves, testing both the body and the mind and why mental commitment is just as important as physical preparation.
Along the way, they consider the potential for Top Flight to feature marathon events in the future and how different training approaches can still lead to success depending on an athlete’s background.
