Running Rogue Chris McClung

In this one, we are going to talk about how to achieve BALANCE in your running in two different ways.
a. How do you balance running and life? I give you 5 thoughts on how to find time for training while balancing work, family, and relationships.
b. How do you balance finding the edge in performance with overall health? I give you 5 thoughts on how to find and test your limits without sacrificing long term health and longevity.
Balance isn't easy and requires constant work, but I hope these ideas will help you get the yin and yang right for you.
Thank you to Logan and Mikhael for the show ideas that sparked this episode!

In this episode, I answer recent questions from listeners as well as themes from athletes that I coach.
Today's questions:
How should I evolve paces over time and can I go too slow? What should I do if I have a bad workout or long run? How can I protect myself from dogs on the run? Should I do a 2 or 3 week marathon taper (or 1 or 2 week half marathon taper)? Is your training too easy (or too hard)??
