    Training Smarter, Not Harder: How Periodisation Builds Peak Running Fitness

    Why do so many runners train hard… yet never feel fully fit on race day? In this episode, we break down periodisation — the structured way of organising your training into phases so you don’t have to do every workout, every week, all the time. Whether you’re following a 16–20 week training plan or building fitness year-round, understanding training cycles can be the difference between steady progress and constant fatigue, injury, or burnout. We cover: What periodisation actually means (in plain English) How training phases work and why each one matters When to focus on endurance, speed, strength, and recovery Why doing “everything at once” stalls progress How structured variety helps prevent plateaus and injuries How to time peak fitness for race day This episode is ideal for runners training for 5Ks, half marathons, marathons, or anyone who wants to train with more purpose and less guesswork. 🏃‍♂️ Train with intention. Recover properly. Peak when it matters. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
