Did you know that about half of recreational runners experience injuries annually? Many don't adjust their training when they get back to running, leading to further issues. Injuries can break your consistency, so take proactive measures to stay on the trails and away from the elliptical. Join us and make the most of your running journey.
Online Coaching
What’s the number one thing runners do that results in burnout and injury? They train way too hard. Lactate threshold tests allow you to discover your LT-1 and LT-2 training zones. Essentially, these zones let you train at the RIGHT effort. The mile world record holder, Jakob Ingebrigsten, had this to say about training:
“We think of training as if we are farmers, and what we are harvesting are carrots. Many athletes want to pull the carrot out of the ground early to see what they have made, but in reality, once you test it, you can never put it back in,"
With a lactate threshold test, you can figure out your training zones to help grow the best carrot.
