In this episode, Nathan discusses the difference between stamina and endurance and how they relate to running. Stamina is a prolonged activity with a higher output, while endurance is simply a prolonged activity. Nathan explains that stamina is a measurement of fatigue resistance and can be used to determine what power output you can hold after doing work. He also shares three ways to build stamina: longer long runs, long runs with a higher output, and longer sub-threshold sessions. Nathan emphasizes the importance of tracking stamina for longer distance races and offers his expertise to help runners improve their stamina. Takeaways Stamina is a measurement of fatigue resistance and can show what power output you can hold after doing work. To build stamina, focus on longer long runs, long runs with a higher output, and longer sub-threshold sessions. Tracking stamina is important for longer distance races to determine the effectiveness of training and race strategy. A power meter is a valuable tool for analyzing and improving stamina in running. Nathan offers his expertise to help runners improve their stamina and integrate data into their training and racing.

In this episode, Nathan discusses the importance of monitoring training and shares protocols and metrics to determine if training is effective. He focuses on two main topics: performance and load management. The power duration curve is a key tool for performance monitoring, as it shows an athlete's maximum efforts for different durations. It helps personalize intervals and track progress. Load management is crucial for avoiding overtraining and injury. Nathan explains various metrics, including training stress score (TSS), chronic training load (CTL), acute training load (ATL), and training impact score (TIS). These metrics help determine the right amount of work for each individual. Takeaways Monitoring training is essential to determine if it is effective and to avoid overtraining and injury. The power duration curve is a valuable tool for performance monitoring, as it shows an athlete's maximum efforts for different durations. Metrics like training stress score (TSS), chronic training load (CTL), acute training load (ATL), and training impact score (TIS) help in load management. Personalizing intervals and tracking progress can be done using the power duration curve. Maintaining a balance between training too little and training too much is crucial for optimal performance.

In this episode, Nathan discusses how to integrate data into your training plan for running. He emphasizes that data is not a training plan in itself, but rather a tool to measure what's working and what's not in your training plan. Nathan outlines six steps to integrating data into your plan: working out your threshold power, converting your training plan into power using intensity, building out your base period, lifting your threshold during the build period, building stamina, and creating a race strategy. He emphasizes the importance of evaluating your race strategy and using data to inform future training. Takeaways Data is a tool to measure what's working and what's not in your training plan. Integrating data into your training plan involves working out your threshold power, converting your training plan into power using intensity, building out your base period, lifting your threshold during the build period, building stamina, and creating a race strategy. Evaluating your race strategy and using data to inform future training is crucial for improvement. Using data in training allows you to understand what works for you and make informed decisions about your training and racing.

Summary In this episode, Nathan introduces the Run Power Coach podcast and discusses the use of data in running. He emphasizes that running is not a black box and that recreational runners can benefit from using data to improve their performance. Nathan explains that data includes both subjective and objective metrics and encourages runners to use data to guide their training. He focuses on the importance of power as a metric and its potential to enhance both recreational and professional running. Nathan also highlights that data is not essential and that some athletes rely on subjective feel. He concludes by inviting listeners to submit questions and suggesting possible names for the podcast. Takeaways Running is not a black box, and recreational runners can benefit from using data to improve their performance. Data includes both subjective and objective metrics, and runners should use data to guide their training. Power is an important metric in running and has the potential to enhance both recreational and professional running. While data is valuable, it is not essential, and some athletes rely on subjective feel. Listeners are invited to submit questions and suggest names for the podcast. Sound Bites "Running isn't this kind of black box that people think it is." "I think power is the low hanging fruit in both recreational and professional running." "Data helps you find a benchmark to link to what it feels like."
