Here’s your free but abridged version of this week’s “Run Long, Run Healthy” newsletter. Subscribe here to receive the full edition with more on the latest scientific articles and research on training, nutrition, shoes, injury prevention, and motivation.
New research questions whether aggressive pre-race carbohydrate loading adds meaningful performance benefit for runners who are already fueling well — and the answer is more nuanced than you'd expect.
This week's podcast covers the questions every serious runner eventually asks — how to train on your race day carbon shoes without burning them out, what to do when blisters keep showing up no matter which shoe you try, and whether a sky-high marathon heart rate is something to worry about.
Plus: should your longest long run actually be 22 miles, heart rate vs. RPE for easy days, and a discussion on Chinese running brands that might be flying under your radar.
