How to Go From a Good Runner to an Elite Runner | Alfie Manthorpe | Ep 52

In this episode, we break down the reality of reaching an elite level - from consistency, high mileage and recovery to genetics, running drills, mindset, super shoes, double-threshold training and heat training.

We also get into the demands of being a full-time professional runner, HYROX training, shoe rotation, and why doing more isn't always about running harder.
