About this episode

The episode discusses how to improve marathon times while enjoying running and racing, emphasizing long-term planning.

Loads of you have just done a marathon. You have probably entered another one (or the same one again!) in a years time. How do you have a great year to improve on your time whilst still having fun, racing and enjoying running! We chat about how long term planning can lead to big improvements.
