This week you have the gift of checking in with Christine and Toni twice in one week! Due to technical difficulties this was a two part put together podcast episode - and don't worry, they deliver. The ladies in charge of Relentless Runners talk about decrypting their running coach in relation to Christine's build for Buffalo, they talk about the power of The Brick and how it can help detrain from social media distraction, and they talk about a topic that tends to be taboo in the running space. Aesthetic goals. And how to approach them in a healthy and smart way as an endurance athlete.
