Our hosts, Katie and Stuart, had the pleasure of meeting with running coach and marathon trainer, Katie Down from The Running Hub. Listen to these 3 discuss online coaching, nutrition support, and a community for runners of all levels. Katie Down and her team offer personalized training plans, live and on-demand classes, and a supportive network to help athletes achieve their goals, improve performance, and stay injury-free. Services include strength training, running guidance, expert workshops, and race preparation.
“On the start line, I was trying to turn down the brightness of my phone to save battery so that I could record the run, and somehow deleted the Nike app off of my phone, so I had to just run the marathon blind. Not literally blind, but blind to pace, or naked as they now call it, and somehow managed to run even splits the whole way and finished in 3:54. When they say listen to the body, I think that’s one of my best achievements to date.” 17:44
