Running Your First Marathon - What You Don't Know with Jason Fitzgerald
Show Notes Chapter Markers

Today I am joined by world renowned running coach, blogger and podcaster Jason Fitzgerald. 

As myself and many of our VBC community begin to dabble in longer distance ruining, I thought it was timely to bring in the man himself, Jason Fitzgerald, to break down the common misconceptions and help to empower you to go out there and succeed in whatever running goals you may have.

We cover:

  • Jason's journey to his first marathon
  • Why running is such a trend
  • The common misconceptions and mistakes new runners make
  • Key tips for injury prevention (spoiler: get in the weight room!)
  • Recovery, pace, form and of course some race day tips to get you through 'the wall'.
