Another Mother Runner

All About Pacing with Matt Fitzgerald

This is a fascinating, must-listen episode for all runners, regardless of whether you run races. The topic is pacing—in races and in workouts—and the guest is Matt Fitzgerald, a running coach, multi-time marathoner, and an author of 30+ books including How to Run the Perfect Race. Along with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Coach Liz Waterstraat, Matt tells: 
-how pacing is the art of finding your limit; 
-how to “gamify” your runs to hone your perception of pace; 
-about his 4+-year struggle with Long COVID; 
-why relying on a GPS can be detrimental; and,
-the secrets of remaining steady with running.
