Alastair Higgins - Spartathlon 4th Place, Ultra Running‪.‬ No Finish Line

    • 健身

In this episode I'm chatting to Alastair Higgins a Scottish International Ultra Runner based in Dublin.  Alastair finished 4th in the 2019 Spartathlon, an epic race from Athens to Sparta against a stacked field that included some of the World's top Ultra Runners.  We chat about training, racing, nutrition and the mindset required to compete at this level.  We also talk about staying injury free and how the decision making process can be affected by the expectations we perceive from others and also impose on ourselves.  This year Alastair made some changes to his training and is now coached by Conor Holt & Camille Herron.  
I had a chat with Conor during the 24hr World Championships in Albi this year and found it very interesting and informative.  Conor will be a guest on the podcast in the near future. #spartathlon #ultrarunning
