Welcome back friends to The Pain Cave Chronicles podcast. Here we (Kyle, Cody, and Sean) chat through our marathon training builds towards Buffalo 2024.This week on the pod we go over a week of intentional rest and recovery mid-training block (except for a rogue 10k PB - Kyle just couldn't resist).
