The Running Explained Podcast - A podcast by Elisabeth Scott

This episode was a total blast to record with Run Coach & Under Armour Running Ambassador Alison Staples (@alioop_0_o_runs on Instagram!) We went through some common "rules" of running and discussed if it was an *always* rule or if or when you can "break" that rule!! Some of the "rules" we discussed... Always follow a hard day with an easy day Never increase your miles by more than 10% each week Run most of your miles in your easy effort zone Build your base before adding speed Replace your shoe every 300-500 miles Never run when your pain at rest is 3/10 or greater A 180 cadence is the best cadence Alison Staples is an RRCA-certified running coach,  a global run ambassador for Under Armour Running, the Co-Leader of Baltimore Based Run Club Riot Squad Running, and has been featured in Runner's World and Self Magazines! -- If you like the show, please remember to rate & subscribe!  TRAINING PLANS NOW AVAILABLE: www.runningexplained.co
