In this episode of "Mere Mortals in Motion", we delve deep into the first phase of our training journey: running. While it might be a challenging domain for many, including myself, running offers not only physical endurance but also a mental test. Learn about why I've chosen running, how I plan to progress towards a potential marathon over a 12-week period, and the scientific rationale behind this periodized training approach. Whether you're an aspiring marathoner or just looking to understand the intricacies of running training, this episode has something for everyone.0:00 - Intro1:12 - Why a Phase?4:20 - First Phase: Running7:32 - The Goal12:52 - Equipment14:25 - ScienceFollow the details over on the website as well!https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/meremortaltrainingConnect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcastSupport the show
