    Episode 2 with Lauren Ryan was recorded just before she flew back to the States. Lauren talks about why her weekly mileage and Sunday long runs are non-negotiable, why running slow on recovery days matters just as much as training hard, and how consistency over time has been the biggest difference-maker in her career. She also opens up about her next chapter—relocating to Flagstaff and working with a new coach. Enjoy!
