The Roadman Cycling Podcast Why Runners Excel at Cycling—and Where They Struggle
Runners bring huge aerobic engines, mental toughness, and a high pain tolerance to cycling—but making the switch isn’t always easy. Anthony is currently coaching a seriously talented runner who’s transitioned to the bike, and while their endurance is off the charts, there are some big adjustments to tackle.
In this episode, we break down the strengths runners bring, the unexpected challenges they face—like muscle adaptation, bike handling, and pacing—and how to train smarter for a smoother transition. Whether you're a runner eyeing up the bike or just curious about the crossover, this one’s packed with insights on making the shift successfully.
