info_outlineIt's been a busy few weeks at Running Hub HQ. We've been wrapping up the Spring Season with our athletes and also hosting our 2nd Running Hub Retreat in Paphos, Cyprus.
But as we transition from spring to summer it's time to think about the next training block and what it looks like.
Some of our athletes already know their targets and focus for the next 3 - 9 months, but others are a bit lost and wondering what to do next?
In this episode we discuss what training could look like over the summer and how we're shaping training for our Summer and Autumn goals.
