Hey runners, race day isn't just about fitness; it's about execution. Today, we break down race strategy and pacing so you can run smarter, stay in control early, and finish strong when it counts.
On the injury front, we're tackling one of the most common setbacks runners face: runner's knee recovery, and what the timeline actually looks like, and the key steps that help you return faster (and healthier) instead of rushing back too soon.
And to round things out, we've got two essentials for staying durable through training: a complete 3-week marathon taper plan to arrive fresh on race morning, plus 8 mobility exercises every runner should be doing to move better, run faster, and stay injury-free.
Olympian and pro runner Sam Parsons joins the Marathon Handbook Podcast for a candid conversation about elite running, early YouTube days with Tin Man Elite, super shoes, and what comes after chasing PRs. Sam opens up about injury, entrepreneurship, building FAVES, working with Tracksmith, and why he's leaving Boulder for Los Angeles.
Runner's knee can start as a tiny twinge, but the choices you make in the next few days can determine whether you're back running soon or stuck dealing with it for months.
