Do you remember "Presidential Physical Fitness” testing from youth? Can you name all 6 of the “classic” tests it included? Fun fact: (according to a Feb. 2024 NYT article) Born of Cold War-era fears that America was becoming “soft,” the test was first introduced by President Lyndon Johnson in 1966.  The goal was to improve the fitness of the nation's youth for military service. The original test also included a softball throw, which mimicked throwing a grenade So if you don't have antiquated mid-century calisthenics metrics to tell you if you're fit/athletic, what can you use? How can you know if you're WINNING AT FITNESS?? What's an average human to do? Your Doctor Friends came across NYT article titled “This Test Might Be the Best Way to Track Fitness and Longevity” which focused on V02 max. The article presents the pros and cons of using V02 max as a valid, objective measure of cardiopulmonary fitness. Your Doctor Friends decided to reach out to our Exercise Physiology MASTER EXPERT, to break it down for y'all! Welcome, Philip Skiba, DO! Dr. Skiba is the outgoing Director of Sports Medicine/Fellowship Director for Advocate Health - Chicago, where he served for 12 years Dr. Skiba founded the Advocate Human Performance and Biomechanics Laboratories, helping amateur, elite and professional athletes explore their limits using state-of-the-art technology. Dr. Skiba was recently recruited to a professorship at Thomas Jefferson University Medical School in Philadelphia, where he will serve as Medical Director of Sports Medicine/Fellowship Director. Dr. Skiba serves on the medical boards of both USA Triathlon and USA Cycling and accompanied Team USA to the World Championships in Australia.  Unusual for a physician, he has also personally coached dozens of world-class athletes. Most notably, he was hired by Nike for the Breaking 2 project and helped train the fastest runners alive in pursuit of the first 2-hour marathon.  Dr. Skiba later appeared in and narrated portions of NatGeo's Cannes Award-Winning Documentary “Breaking2”. He remains a familiar presence in print and broadcast journalism.

Dagens gjest er maratonløper, lokalpolitiker og småbarnsfar, som om få dager igjen står på startstreken i Valencia for å løpe 42.195 meter. Erlend er ved flere anledninger nevnt i podkasten, i forbindelse med hans enorme utnyttelsesgrad av sin lungekapasitet. Og hva kommer dette av? Har han trent knallhard fra ung alder? Eller er dette et medfødt «fenomen»?På en tur rundt Mosvatnet i slutten av tenårene fikk Erlend sitt første møte med ekte løpeglede, og han ga seg like så med det. Studietiden i Oslo inneholdt få karbonsko, løpetights og pulsklokker. Men ikke ulikt mange tidligere gjester i Lavterskel, var det et veddemål som fikk han til startstreken på løpesko på beina.En noe uortodoks oppladning, en blytung gjennomføring og en følelse av smerte da han krysset målstreken, stoppet ikke Erlend. Debuten ble starten på en fantastisk rekke med gode resultater.Og vi snakker om alt som har skjedd i etterkant. Hans deltakelse i Breaking Marathon Limits sitt «Breaking2:30»-prosjekt, returen til hjembyen, GTI-effekten og strukturert trening, et flere års langt skadeavbrekk, behandlingsmetoder, comeback og helgens Valencia-deltakelse.Erlend er også en lokalpolitiker med enormt engasjement for tilrettelegging i samfunnet for mer fysisk aktivitet, lekeplass-fasiliteter for barn og unge, hva politikere kan lære av idretten og like muligheter for alle.En vår drøm om en 2 km tartandekket i Stavanger blir også et stort tema mot slutten av episoden. Utrolig nok er det enda flere ting som blir tatt opp i løpet av disse 90-minuttene, både seriøst og useriøst. Så vi håper denne episoden slår an, at dere plukker opp noe god visdom og kanskje trekker på smilebåndet en gang eller to.Vi ønsker en stor lykke til, til Erlend og alle andre som er på vei sydover til Valencia for å løpe denne helgen.

Episodio 71. La maratón y el ciclismo de carretera, ¿en cuál basarnos para entrenar trail?

La maratón de asfalto consiste en correr. Correr a piñón fijo durante unas 2h, si eres top mundial, 3h, si eres popular comprometido, o 4-5h, si eres runner del montón. El ciclismo de carretera, por su parte, consiste en pedalear sobre una bici. Pedalear durante unas 5-6h y unos 250K, como en las pruebas de un día del circuito WorldTour: Milán-Sanremo, París-Roubaix o la clásica de San Sebastián. O pedalear durante unas 8h y unos 200K, como en las marchas cicloturistas como Quebrantahuesos. Horas y kilómetros, eso sí, donde el pedaleo será muy extenuante, en los puertos, y muy relajado, en las bajadas. Y ¿qué hay del trail running? ¿Es correr a piñón fijo, como la maratón, o es alternar esfuerzos extenuantes, con relativos descansos, a lo largo de horas y horas, como el ciclismo de carretera? Pues, ni fu ni fa. El trail running implica el gesto de correr, como la maratón, sí, pero a intensidades variables, como el ciclismo, y durante múltiples horas, como el ciclismo también. O sea, en términos de patrón motor, el trail running es semejante al maratón de asfalto; pero, en términos de metabolismo, el trail running está mucho más próximo al ciclismo de carretera. Puesto que la maratón y el ciclismo son deportes con más solera y más investigación-y-desarrollo que el trail (en especial, el ciclismo, que es el equivalente al F1 en deporte de resistencia), maratón y ciclismo constituyen las plantillas o referencias donde mirar, para saber cómo entrenar y cómo competir en la carrera por montaña. Pero, como con cada uno de ellos compartimos unas cosas y nos diferenciamos en otras, ¿cuál de los dos deportes debería ser el espejo en el que mirarnos? ¿Cómo podemos hacer, de este jovencito trail running, un adulto hecho y derecho y a la vanguardia del deporte de endurance, como están la maratón y el ciclismo? Dicho en términos más prácticos, para mejorar en trail running, ¿nuestro foco ha de estar en lo que hacen en el cuerno de África o en lo que se cocina en el corazón de Europa? En el presente episodio voy a desarrollar mi propuesta, basada en dos premisas. Uno, en materia de adaptación muscular y articular, de material y de métodos de recuperación, debemos mirar lo que se hace en maratón. Premisa número dos, en materia de adaptaciones metabólicas, es decir, de cómo entrenar el motor y cómo dejarle descansar entre entrenos y de cómo llevarlo al límite en competición, lo que incluye estrategia nutricional, hemos de fijarnos en el ciclismo. En una palabra, para saber cómo desarrollar a tope nuestros pies y patas, estudiaremos lo que hace la gente del maratón; para saber cómo desarrollar a tope nuestro corazón, pulmones, transporte de O2 y mitocondrias, estudiaremos lo que hace la gente del ciclismo. Y, como he apuntado antes, si bien el trail running tiene unos 20 añitos de existencia, la ciencia y la experiencia del maratón y el ciclismo tiene, por lo menos, 50; de modo que va a ser interesante analizar qué hace esta gente, con el doble de sabiduría que la modesta tribu corresendas. Respecto a las demandas metabólicas del maratón y del ciclismo, mucho de lo que voy a explicar está basado en un artículo brillante del gran Andrew Jones, catedrático en fisiología y que fue parte del equipo del mítico proyecto Breaking2 de Nike. El artículo es de 2023 y se titula: “The fourth dimension: physiological resilience as an independent determinant of endurance exercise performance.” Está “en abierto”, así que puedes buscarlo, descargarlo, leerlo y releerlo, si te interesa; no tiene desperdicio. Hechas las menciones de rigor y habiendo creado, ya, suficiente hype, sin más dilación, vamos al turrón.

6 de mayo de 2017. Región de Lombardía, al norte de Italia. Circuito de automovilismo de Monza. 5 de la mañana. Los maratonistas, Lelisa Desisa, Zersenay Tadese y Eliud Kipchoge, se disponen a realizar un intento de Breaking2: bajar de las dos horas en maratón. Sólo Kipchoge se acercó, quedando a 26” de la ansiada marca 1:59:59. Pero no fue ese resultado lo que pasó a formar parte de la Historia y, sobre todo, no fue ese resultado el acontecimiento que lo cambió todo, el acontecimiento que marcó un antes y un después en el atletismo. Ese día, los tres maratonistas iban equipados con las Nike Vaporfly, las primeras zapatillas con mediasuela reactiva y placa rígida de fibra de carbono en su interior; las zapatillas llamadas a cambiar las reglas del juego. Adiós a las clásicas zapatillas voladoras, ultra espartanas, y bienvenidas las amortiguaciones de hasta 39mm y con elementos rígidos en su interior; adiós a los compuestos de EVA y TPU, pesados y poco reactivos, y bienvenido el PEBA (polieter bloque amida). Y, sobre todo, con estas nuevas cartas en la mesa, adiós para siempre a las barreras de las 2h 02 y las 2h 14 en maratón de asfalto masculino y femenino, respectivamente. Según escribo esto, las nuevas barreras a derribar son las 2h 00 35 del atleta de Nike, Kelvin Kiptum, y las 2h 11 53 de la atleta de Adidas, Tigist Assefa. Sí, has oído bien, atleta de Adidas. Y es que la casa alemana ha dado un nuevo golpe sobre la mesa, añadiendo un parámetro más a la ecuación: zapatillas con mediasuela reactiva, elementos rígidos en su interior y, algo que todavía no he logrado asimilar, en un conjunto que se queda en unos apretadísimos 138g para la talla 42. WTF? Lo ha conseguido con su compuesto Lightstrike, hecho de TPU, que de algún modo extraño han logrado aligerar al máximo, manteniendo la capacidad responsiva. En el episodio de hoy exploraremos varias cuestiones. La primera es si de verdad estas súper-shoes son tal cosa. Ya he ido dando pistas de que efectivamente lo son y, a estas alturas de la película, también sabrás de sus maravillas. Pero habrá que acudir a los datos, los números contantes y sonantes, para demostrar que estas zapas mejoran los tiempos en carrera. Una segunda cuestión, una vez aclarado que las super-shoes funcionan, es por qué, qué beneficios concretos proporcionan y a través de qué mecanismos, si es la placa, la espuma, el peso, la geometría o una combinación de todo. Por último, una cuestión de más interés para la audiencia de este podcast: ¿puede esa magia de las super-shoes trasladarse a los senderos y la montaña? Lo cierto es que marcas de trail, como Hoka, The North Face, Adidas Terrex, Asics o Brooks, ya han implementado placas de carbono en sus modelos y, a juzgar por los resultados en UTMB 2023, en todas las distancias, parece que funcionan o, cuando menos, no perjudican. Para contestar esas cuestiones, nos apoyaremos en la ciencia más reciente, como es costumbre en este podcast. En concreto, nos basaremos en los hallazgos de dos grupos de investigación, el grupo de Wouter Hoogkamer, en la Universidad de Massachusets, y el grupo de Fernando González-Mohíno y Víctor Rodrigo-Carranza, en la Universidad de Castilla La-Mancha. Wouter Hoogkamer, por si a nadie le suena ese nombre, es quien firmó el estudio de donde salió el famoso apellido de las Vaporfly: Nike Vaporfly “4%”; ese “four percent” (ó cuatro por ciento) es el ahorro en economía de carrera que proporcionaron las Vaporfly v1. Venga, vamos acelerando, que el tema de hoy son precisamente las zapatillas para volar. Hechas las menciones de rigor, sin más dilación, vamos al turrón. --- Sígueme en https://www.instagram.com/correrporsenderos/ donde publico píldoras sobre trail running a diario en Stories .

Glenn McConell chats with Professor Andy Jones from the University of Exeter in England about the incredible Eliud Kipchoge and what it took for him to break 2 hr for the marathon distance. Professor Jones, who has an exception research track record, conducted a study with 16 world class marathon runners to determine what factors are required to run a marathon in 2 hr. He then used this data and other information he had to choose which runners would attempt Breaking2 in Monza in 2017. We discuss this attempt and Eliud Kipchoge's eventual breaking of 2 hr in Vienna in 2019. Andy outlines the contributions to the record-breaking run of VO2 max, lactate threshold /the highest percentage of V02 max one can hold and running economy. We also discuss the other factors such as the use of pacemakers, drafting, the crowd, nutritional strategies and of course his shoes. Andy also shares some personal Kipchoge anecdotes. He also talks about his 15 years of experience testing the previous world record holder in the women's marathon, Paula Radcliffe, and estimates what time she could run for a marathon if she had run under the conditions that Eliud Kipchoge had. A really fascinating discussion. Twitter: @Inside_exercise @AndyBeetroot @GlennMcConell1

Link Amazon per l'acquisto del libro: https://amzn.to/2TAA4hFNon conoscevo Ed Caesar, l’autore di questo libro. E non credo neanche che avrei comprato questo libro di mia sponte, che mi è stato regalato per Natale da un amico. Però alla fine la lettura è stata piuttosto interessante.Due note al volo su Ed Caesar, che credo sia sconosciuto ai più: è un giornalista, anche piuttosto giovane, che scrive su New Yorker, Wired, The Independent e molti altri. Non si occupa principalmente di sport, del quale comunque evidentemente scrive: oltre alla maratona è appassionato di tennis. Ma i suoi articoli sono soprattutto sulla storia, sulla guerra, oltre che di cronaca contemporanea. Ha vinto anche numerosi premi in passato.Nelle pagine di questo libro si interroga sull’assalto dei maratoneti più forti al muro delle 2 ore. Fa strano, leggendolo, di come l’atletica sia “invecchiata” nel giro di così poco tempo.Questo è un libro del 2016, eppure sembra passata una vita. I nomi dei top runner del 2016 sono ben diversi da quelli attuali, così come i tempi ed i record. E, ovviamente, l’autore non poteva certo sapere che da lì a poco, ci sarebbero stati due eventi creati ad hoc per abbattere questo famoso muro: il Breaking2 di Monza, marchiato Nike, e l’ormai arcifamoso Ineos 1:59 del 2019, dove Kipchoge è riuscito finalmente nell’impresa.Anzi, proprio nelle ultime pagine del libro (non vi spoilero nulla, tanto non c’è da scoprire nessun assassino), l’autore immagina l’idea della creazione di un evento costruito per riuscire a stare sotto le due ore: un circuito totalmente pianeggiante con poco vento, i migliori runner con delle lepri, una situazione climatica nel quale correre. Si può dire che abbia pensato in anticipo a buona parte di quello che poi è stato davvero fatto!Il libro non dà tabelle di allenamento o consigli tecnici, ma, diviso in capitoli piuttosto precisi, racconta piuttosto di alcune storie legate a questo ambiente e fa alcuni approfondimenti e riflessioni sulla corsa, in particolare quella kenyana.Si parla in grandissima parte di Geoffrey Mutai, che possiamo individuare come il protagonista del libro.Ed Caesar probabilmente lo aveva “battezzato” come colui in grado per primo di riuscire a stare sotto le due ore in maratona. E, aggiungendoci alcune storie, davvero interessanti su di lui e sulla sua vita, ha pensato di utilizzarlo come una sorta di fil rouge dell’opera. La storia ci dice che la sua previsione non è stata azzeccata!Ci sono racconti delle sue gare, fatte di successi, record, ma anche di infortuni ed insuccessi. E c’è la sua vita, anche da uomo, oltre che da sportivo. L’autore ci parla dello “Spirito” che lo pervade durante le maratone, specialmente quelle meglio riuscite.Viene narrata parte della sua crescita, che immagino sia la stessa di tanti big della corsa: un'infanzia difficile, un'adolescenza vissuta con il pericolo dell’alcool, fino al compiere la scelta di allenarsi duramente in un ritiro sugli altopiani, in situazioni ambientali estreme, nella speranza di uscire dal Kenya. Cose che spesso Mutai e gli altri top runner hanno continuato a fare, nonostante le vittorie ed i soldi guadagnati.C'è un capitolo dedicato a Samuel Wanjiru, che forse in pochi conosceranno. Una promessa della maratona, che non ha saputo gestire la sua vita. Morto in una situazione tutt’ora non chiara, a soli 25 anni. E’, a quanto pare, un pericolo comune a tanti runner africani di successo: ricevere soldi dalle gare vinte e spenderli in mogli/fidanzate (più d’una!), alcool e fare piaceri ad amici, conoscenti ed anche sconosciuti, tutti affamati di denaro. Il tutto in una nazione estremamente povera, dove la differenza tra ricchi e poveri è davvero accentuata.Ma non ci sono solo loro due: si parla di tanti maratoneti famosi e di alcune loro storie e gare. Ad esempio, Bill Rodgers, Geoffrey Kamworor, Emmanuel Mutai (che non è parente di Geoffrey), Haile Gebrselassie, che l’autore chiama per tutto il tempo solo “Haile”, forse per risparmiare inchiostro e per evitare a chi ne parlerà, come me, di impappinarsi troppo nel pronunciarne il cognome.C’è anche spazio per raccontare il Kenya: patria di tanti di questi corridori, dilaniata da guerre, povertà, abuso di alcool e doping. Si parla anche di eventuali motivi più scientifici circa la superiorità degli atleti dell’Africa orientale, ma francamente questo ed il capitolo incentrato sul doping non mi sono rimasti nel cuore. Forse perché mi appassionano di più le storie, piuttosto che alcune considerazioni scientifiche e pseudo-scientifiche sull’anatomia dei kenyoti, piuttosto che illazioni, gossip ed altri eventi legati al doping. Non è nel mio stile, diciamo.Invece, mi è piaciuta la parte dedicata alla storia della maratona e di come sia diventata diffusa solo nell’ultimo secolo. Una evoluzione sia tecnica, per i top runners, che di business e di marketing. Si comprende meglio come sia economicamente allettante per un atleta correre determinate gare, in particolare quelle delle Six Majors. Ma si parla anche di come la maratona si sia diffusa come evento di massa, anche negli atleti amatoriali. In particolare, ci sono aneddoti ed accenni a New York, Londra e Boston su tutte.Inoltre, c’è anche spazio per il nostro eroico Dorando Pietri, addirittura raccontato in un’occasione da Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.----------------------Seguimi!Canale Telegram: https://t.me/da0a42Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/da0a42/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/da0a42/Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/37970087Sito: https://da0a42.home.blogOppure contattami!Telegram: https://t.me/lorenzomaggianiE-Mail: dazeroaquarantadue@gmail.com----------------------Music credits: Feeling of Sunlight by Danosongs - https://danosongs.com

Luis, anfitrión del podcast de running de Trotadores, responde preguntas de un oyente curioso. Cubren sus inicios en el running, pasión por maratón y opinión del atletismo mundial. Además, nos habla del detrás de cámaras del podcast. Monetización, visión, cosas técnicas y mucho más..  Un episodio perfecto si eres un oyente nuevo, o sí como muchos, no has escuchado cada uno de los 100 episodios anteriores. Te servirá para conocer un poco más al Luis el anfitrión y entender el por qué hace lo que hace. Luis Miguel Garzón. En este especial episodio Luis es entrevistado por Peter Gallego. Un fiel oyente, quién tuvo la tarea de representar a los oyentes promedio y preguntarle a Luis detalles sobre su vida personal, atletismo en general y el podcast de running. Luis tiene 36 años y está casado con Nicole desde el 2005. Sin hijos, pero dedicado a sus dos perros: Lea y Clooney. Dos perros rescatados de la calle los cuales robaron su corazón y con los que corre en montaña varias veces por semana. Administrador de empresas de la Universidad del Sur de la Florida y amante de los negocios. Desde el colegio tuvo su propio negocio y en Estados Unidos desarrolló varias empresas, hasta venderlas en el 2014 y trasladarse a Medellín, Colombia para empezar a disfrutar de la libertad financiera. Desde el 2014, Luis se ha dedicado a ser dueño de negocio. Un supermercado latino en Tampa, bienes raíces, bolsa de valores y obviamente productor del podcast de running Trotadores. Sus inicios en el running. Luis nos contó que su deporte inicial fue el fútbol durante los años en el colegio. Sin embargo, su única experiencia con el running fue correr 32 vueltas de 400 metros a la pista de atletismo de su colegio. Posteriormente, gracias a su esposa,  corrió su primera carrera de 10k en 41 minutos. Por los siguientes 6 años fue un runner indisciplinado, corriendo un par de veces al mes únicamente. No obstante, en el 2009 gracias a su suegro Nick, al que considera su mentor, empezó a correr medias maratones viajando alrededor de Estados Unidos Finalmente, en el 2013 participó en su primera maratón en Huntsville, Alabama en un tiempo de 4:03. El resto es historia. A la fecha ha completado 24 maratones y una ultramaratón de 100. También, corrió en el 2019 de punto a punto 176 kilómetros en 5 días. En ese episodio # 95, puedes conocer más a fondo de su alimentación, recuperación y trucos para mantener lesiones a raya.  Peter le pregunta: Su maratón favorita. Sus metas a corto y largo plazo. Por qué le gusta tanto la distancia de 42 kilómetros.  Cuántos libros lee al año y cómo hace para recordar tantos detalles. Cómo corre 4 maratones anuales por los últimos 6 años sin lesiones. Atletismo mundial. Otra área de mucho interés de la audiencia, fue conocer la opinión de Luis sobre el estado del running en general. Peter le preguntó sobre su pasión por seguir a las figuras más destacadas del atletismo de largo aliento.  También, Peter le preguntó sobre el reto Ineos 159 realizado por Eliud Kipchoge y sus implicaciones en la comunidad de corredores. Aunque Luis nos recordó que en el podcast de running se publicó un episodio sobre el Breaking2, donde Diego y Luis hablaron de esto a fondo. Por último, discutieron un poco sobre la tecnología y su filosofía en adoptarla pero no volverse esclavo de estas herramientas. Incluso, Luis nos da pistas sobre la zapatilla que piensa probar en el 2020.  Podcast de Running. Obviamente, muchas de las preguntas que recibimos por parte de la audiencia fueron referentes al podcast de running Trotadores.                Entre ellas: ¿Cuánto tiempo dedica al mes? Dedica al podcast de running alrededor de 120 horas al mes. Desde la concepción de la idea de cada episodio, su producción y mercadeo.  ¿Cómo monetiza el podcast de running? Aunque nos cuenta los 4 modelos que existen en el mundo del podcast para monetizar: Publicidad, membresías, mecenazgo y ventas de productos o servicios a la comunidad; Luis nos cuenta cómo lo hace dentro del podcast de running: Publicidad honesta y auténtica. Entrenamientos personalizados para runners. Mentoría para lanzar podcast de cualquier tema. Visión del podcast a 5 años. Muchos oyentes tienen miedo que el podcast desaparezca como le sucede a otros podcast de running. Sin embargo, Luis confirma que tiene temas preparados para los próximos 5 años. Incluso tiene la idea de lanzar un podcast de running paralelo a Trotadores. Se trata de publicar un episodio diario respondiendo preguntas de la audiencia. Si quieres enviar tu pregunta lo puedes hacer aquí con una nota de voz. ¿Cómo se da a conocer el podcast? Luis nos cuenta del dilema de ser un pionero en la industria. Aunque podcast fue la palabra del año del 2005, en latinoamérica sigue siendo una novedad. Por esta razón, Trotadores ha tenido que hacer el mercadeo al revés. En vez de simplemente publicar los episodios y esperar que orgánicamente oyentes busquen y encuentren el podcast de running, Trotadores ha tenido que hacer mercadeo tradicional por medio de ferias, puntos de información y creación de comunidad. Comunidad de Trotadores. Fue interesante escuchar a Luis hablar sobre la comunidad generada alrededor del podcast de running.

First, he explains how he worked to bring together the engagement and publicity elements of the Ineos 1:59 Challenge with the performance question at the heart of the project. Also on the conversational agenda were: - How the Ineos 1:59 Challenge differed from Nike and Kipchoge’s unsuccessful Breaking2 project in 2017 [ from 9:20]; - The steps taken once it was decided that Vienna’s Prater Park would make for the best venue [from 17:00]; - Brailsford’s work to get everyone on the team pulling in the same direction [from 26:50]; - The execution of the run by Kipchoge and Co. [from 32:50]; - What success meant to Brailsford and the future of marathon running [from 39:00].

Breaking2 was Nike's tremendously ambitious project to run a marathon in less than 2 hours. The project failed to reach its goal, but it came damn close. And in the process, the brand—and long-distance running more generally—learned new ways to shave time off future races. At the Cannes Lions, we sat down with leaders from Nike, Wieden + Kennedy and production house Dirty Robber to talk about the project's key takeaways.

On May 6, 2017, three runners attempted to break the two-hour marathon barrier. Kenya's Eliud Kipchoge ran the fastest marathon in history at 2 hours and 25 seconds. Dr. Phillip Skiba was part of Nike's scientific team for the Breaking2 project. He is board certified in both family medicine and sports medicine, with a PhD in Exercise Physiology. He spent several years in the UK as Director of Sports Medicine at the University of Exeter, and developed the equations, algorithms and software systems used by the British Triathlon Federation in their successful quest for gold at the 2012 London Olympics. Skiba's work is now in use at several Olympic training centers and helps train the fastest runners in the world. If you haven't watched the Breaking2 movie, you can do so for free on Youtube. Although the target sub  2-hour goal wasn't achieved, the project shows us what is possible, and more importantly, how we can go about improving performance. There is so much to be learned in this episode. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. We discuss: Is it possible to break the 2-hour barrier in the marathon? Why was this project important? The training variables they focused on with each runner. What he would do differently next time. Applications that can be used for every day mortals.
