Alex Milne joins the pod just four days after his fourth-place finish at Comrades. Alex reflects on missing the podium by only 58 seconds, his huge race block from Valencia to Seville, Worlds 50K, London and Comrades, and how he is now building toward the 100K World Championships in Spain.

He explains why he was happy with the performance overall, but still frustrated to miss the podium by just 58 seconds, and talks through the difficulty of knowing your exact race position during an ultra like Comrades. Alex also breaks down one of the busiest racing blocks in elite distance running, including Valencia, Seville where he ran a 2:11:41 PB, the World 50K Championships, London Marathon while sick, and then Comrades. He explains why he prefers racing often, recovering well, and building through shorter but effective training blocks rather than long uninterrupted build-ups. Matt and Alex discuss how he balances elite training with teaching and parenting, using run-commutes, long lunch breaks, and consistent Box Hill hill sessions. Alex shares details around his 45-65K long runs, threshold work, race-specific Comrades sessions, fueling approach with Nomyo, Flycarb bicarbonate, high carbohydrate intake, sodium needs, heat training through hot baths, strength work, physio, and his plans for the 100K World Championships in Spain on September 20.

We also talk about some running adjacent medical topics: visits to the dentist as a perimenopausal woman, and how traumatic that is. And visits to the optician and how Hol is entering a whole new world of vision. We also have a lovely little controversy to chat about, which is a great one for Hol right now.

Folge 143: Laufen bei Hitze – so steuerst du Intervalle, Dauerläufe und Long Runs bei Sommerhitze richtig35 Grad im Schatten – und dein Trainingsplan sieht Intervalle, einen Long Run oder wichtige Dauerläufe vor. Was jetzt? Durchziehen, anpassen oder pausieren? In dieser Folge erfährst du, wie du bei Hitze vernünftig trainierst, ohne deinen Trainingsplan aus den Augen zu verlieren. Denn hohe Temperaturen bedeuten nicht automatisch Trainingspause. Oft reicht es, kluge Anpassungen vorzunehmen. Du erfährst, was Hitze im Körper bewirkt, warum der Puls steigt und weshalb sich dieselbe Pace plötzlich deutlich anstrengender anfühlt. Außerdem sprechen wir über die Rolle des Blutplasmas, die Anpassungsfähigkeit des Körpers an Hitze und warum viele Läufer nach einer Hitzephase sogar von positiven Trainingseffekten profitieren können. Im Mittelpunkt stehen praktische Fragen aus dem Trainingsalltag: Wie steuerst du Dauerläufe bei Hitze? Was gilt für Intervalle? Wie gehst du mit einem Long Run bei hohen Temperaturen um? Und wie wichtig ist eine einzelne ausgelassene Einheit wirklich, wenn du auf einen Halbmarathon oder Marathon trainierst? Zum Abschluss erhältst du zehn praktische Tipps für das Laufen bei Hitze – von Kühlstrategien über Flüssigkeitsmanagement bis hin zur sinnvollen Belastungssteuerung. Eine Folge für alle, die auch bei Sommerhitze gesund, vernünftig und erfolgreich trainieren möchten.

Folge 142: Warum langsames Laufen oft unterschätzt wirdViele Läufer glauben, dass ein Training nur dann wirksam ist, wenn es anstrengend ist. Doch stimmt das wirklich? In dieser Folge sprechen wir über den Super-Sauerstofflauf (SSL), den niedrigsten Dauerlaufbereich der Laufcampus-Methode. Du erfährst, warum der SSL ungefähr dem klassischen GA1 entspricht, weshalb er dennoch präziser definiert ist und warum bewusst niedrigpulsiges Laufen eine Fähigkeit ist, die viele Läufer erst entwickeln müssen. Außerdem geht es um die häufigsten Missverständnisse rund um GA1, Herzfrequenz und Trainingssteuerung. Warum können – und müssen – Laufanfänger/Einsteiger keinen SSL laufen? Weshalb profitieren gerade gestresste Menschen oft besonders von diesem Trainingsbereich? Und warum kann ein Lauf, der sich unspektakulär anfühlt, trotzdem eine erstaunlich große Wirkung auf Grundlagenausdauer, Energiestoffwechsel und Regeneration haben? Du erfährst außerdem, welche Rolle der SSL für Long Runs spielen kann, warum er für viele Longevity-Interessierte spannend ist und weshalb nicht jeder Trainingsreiz hart sein muss, um wirksam zu sein. Eine Folge für alle, die ihr Lauftraining besser verstehen und bewusster gestalten möchten.

Folge 141: Warum die Laufcampus-Methode Dauerläufe präziser steuertGA1, GA2, Zone 2 oder Wohlfühltempo – viele Läufer sind heute verunsichert, wenn es um die richtige Trainingsintensität geht. In dieser Folge knüpft Andreas Butz direkt an die letzte ZDL-Folge an und erklärt, warum die Laufcampus-Methode Dauerläufe seit 2001 deutlich präziser unterscheidet. Du erfährst: warum LDL und MDL völlig unterschiedliche Trainingswirkungen entfalten, weshalb viele Läufer dauerhaft im falschen Dauerlaufbereich trainieren, warum niedrigpulsiges Laufen eine Fähigkeit ist, und weshalb „so lang und so niedrigpulsig wie möglich“ oft der Schlüssel zu besserer Grundlagenausdauer und nachhaltigem Leistungsfortschritt ist. Außerdem geht es um: Belastungsreserve, Energiestoffwechsel, Fettstoffwechsel, Laufökonomie, Long Runs, und die Frage, warum der ZDL trotzdem eine unverzichtbare Schlüsseleinheit bleibt. Diese Folge hilft dir, die Struktur der Laufcampus-Trainingspläne noch besser zu verstehen – und zu erkennen, warum Abwechslung im Training kein Zufall ist.

Lara Kiene läuft nicht nur schnell. Sie studiert auch noch Lehramt, arbeitet in der Grundschule und hat bis vor kurzem auch noch als Briefträgerin nebenher gejobbt. Ihre Leistungsentwicklung muss also am Alternativ-Training liegen.In dieser Dauerlauffolge spricht Felix mit Lara aus Hamm in Westfalen über ihren Weg von der „faulen Athletin" in der Jugend zur Top-3-Halbmarathonläuferin Deutschlands 2026. Ein Weg ganz ohne Trainerwechsel, ohne Profi-Umzug, ohne Höhentrainingslager — und mit einer Geschichte, die so gar nicht ins klassische Profi-Schema passt.Themen:→ Warum sie als Teenagerin nie wirklich ambitioniert trainiert hat — und warum sie heute genau deshalb noch nie ernsthaft verletzt war→ Wie Corona zum eigentlichen Karriere-Starter wurde→ Das Doppelleben mit Studium, Lehrerinnen-Job und früher zusätzlich fünf Jahre als Briefträgerin→ Trainingsalltag bei Trainer Roland Grewatta in Hamm: kleine Gruppe, viele Long Runs alleine, der Freund als Rad-Begleitung→ Von 80 auf 124 Wochenkilometer — der Sprung, der den Berliner Sub-1:10-Lauf möglich gemacht hat→ Warum sie im Halbmarathon weder Gels noch Trinken nimmt — und wie das mit dem aktuellen Carb-Loading-Hype zusammenpasst (Spoiler: gar nicht)→ Ihr Race-Modus in Berlin: nicht ein einziges Mal auf die Uhr geschaut, bis Kilometer 16 in der Gruppe um Gesa Krause mitgelaufen, durchs Brandenburger Tor zum ersten Mal die Zeit gesehen→ Wie sie über Marathon, Bahn und die Möglichkeit eines professionelleren Setups denkt→ Warum der Traum von einer Europameisterschaft real geworden ist — auch wenn sie es selbst noch nicht ganz fassen kann

Long runs aren't always the thing that makes you faster. Sometimes they're the very thing holding you back.If you've been stuck in that frustrating cycle of pushing harder, running longer, and still feeling slower or constantly beat up, this episode will shift how you think about training. I break down why stepping back from traditional long runs—especially in the off-season—can actually unlock better speed, stronger aerobic fitness, and more consistent progress. You'll learn how smarter volume, intentional recovery, and strategic cross-training work together to keep you healthy while still building race-ready endurance. More importantly, I walk you through how to apply these changes in a practical way so you can train hard without burning out or breaking down.Key TakeawaysCapping long runs during certain phases reduces injury risk while still maintaining endurance. The goal is to stay consistent enough to actually improve, not just survive training.Instead of aggressive jumps, focus on gradual 3–5% progressions that keep the body fresh for quality workouts. Recovery is the secret weapon behind better speed.Adding low-impact aerobic work supports endurance while protecting the legs. It's a simple way to keep building your engine without digging a deeper fatigue hole.Timestamps[00:15] What You'll Learn[01:05] Change 1: I Replaced Long Runs with Smarter Volume[03:10] Use This to Run Injury Free[03:47] Change 2: The 3-5% Rule Kept Me Fresh[04:31] Change 3: Cross-Training Unlocked Base Without the Damage[07:39] How to Really Run Long Runs When You're ReadyLinks & Learnings

In this detailed conversation, Alex Harvey discusses his recent impressive half marathon in Japan, the skepticism around his progression, and his transparent use of Strava to share his full training. Alex breaks down his early marathon times and steady improvement through consistent training. He covers marathon challenges (fueling and getting intensity right), how business and family life fits around training, and his aspirations heading into Tokyo Marathon. He also shares why racing without a strict time goal can be valuable, plus how context-specific training has helped him progress. We also get into his preference for training alone, keeping training efficient, and his approach to diet - along with why he largely avoids strength training and cross training.

In this month's Delirious W.E.S.T. 2026 athlete check-in, we head all the way to London to catch up with our one and only non-Aussie runner, Matthew Farrand — who's juggling dark winter mornings, school drop-offs, and some seriously solid training momentum. Matthew shares how his fitness is quietly (and satisfyingly!) building — those long runs now feel easier and the patella niggle that haunted him in August has settled right down. He talks about the mental side of ultra prep too…the boredom voice, the planning, the “where should I run this weekend?” puzzle, and why exploring new neighbourhoods keeps him motivated. We chat about: • Why dull training is good training
Meet Matthew Farrand: From reluctant school fun-runs to chasing 200 miles through WA bushland In this episode, we welcome UK-based runner (with deep Aussie roots!) Matthew Farrand to the Delirious WEST 2026 athlete series. Born in Margate, raised in Rockingham, and now based in South London, Matthew's running story is anything but predictable. Once a kid who did everything possible to avoid running at school, Matthew has gradually transformed into someone who relishes multi-hour long runs through parks, tunnels, and trails across London. What started with a half marathon for charity has grown into a love for long-distance adventures—culminating in signing up for Delirious 200. In this chat, you'll hear about: •
Long runs are about more than just building mileage. In this mini episode, we're breaking down how to use your long runs as dress rehearsals for race day—from testing your fueling and pre-run meals to figuring out your outfit and mental strategy. We're also talking about why the hardest, most frustrating runs often end up being the ones that matter most when it comes to marathon day. Follow along with the show:
Three of the four hosts are in the studio this week, keeping the vibes rolling while hoping the whole crew is back soon. The boys start by recapping last week's fun and laying out weekend plans, while still balancing some tough family stuff. Peter shares the pain of his brutal 20-mile run as marathon prep kicks into high gear—just two weeks out and confidence isn't exactly soaring. From there, we dive into the headlines: Jimmy Kimmel's return, the Fat Bear Contest, a wild conspiracy about the Packers losing to the Browns, and the comeback of a 1920s tradition—the Waiter Race. NFL Week 4 takes the spotlight too, with Chris finally cashing in a winning week. As always, we close things out on a positive note with some feel-good stories.

He explains the physiological changes that occur during long runs, the importance of fueling, and the differences between heart rate and pace as metrics for training. The conversation provides insights into how to optimize long runs for better performance and injury prevention.TakeawaysA long run is defined as any run longer than 90 minutes.Glycogen depletion is crucial for endurance training adaptation.Long runs stimulate muscle damage, leading to increased endurance capacity.Tissue resilience improves with long runs, helping prevent injuries.Heart rate is a better metric than pace for long runs.Aim for the middle of your heart rate and pace zones.Long runs should be executed in zone two for optimal benefits.Fueling during long runs is essential for performance.The risk of injury increases after three and a half hours of running.Understanding the balance between training stimulus and recovery is key.
High mileage with less ‘Quality” workouts or low mileage with more Quality? Singles or Doubles? Base Building before starting Speed Work or doing it concurrently? Long Runs or Medium Runs?
Matt chats with Chad Pipkens about fishing the Bassmaster EQs, staying positive, and the very important mental side of professional bass fishing that is often overlooked.
In this Coach's Corner episode, Ruth Atkinson from McKirdy Trained talks about how she plans long runs for runners who run the marathon in 4:30 or slower. This is a question we get all the time via DM's and email and we were excited to talk it out. Often times runners in this group assume that they need to run a 20 miler during marathon training to be prepared to race day. Ruth helps us de-bunk that myth and offers up a much better way to schedule training. You can follow Ruth at www.instagram.com/runwithruth.

Jocelyn Benson just might be wired differently. She's run around 40 marathons with no specific training, very few rest days, mainly just for fun. She even ran one 8 months pregnant. And oh yeah, she also happens to be the Michigan Secretary of State. How and why does Jocelyn Benson train the way she does with such a high-profile career? Let's find out. We talk about: How running came into her life and why she still does it, How and why she chose to run the Boston Marathon 8 months pregnant, and Why she shows up at local 5ks to run and talk with everyday people about the big problems to solve If you're worried this episode might get political, no need. We stick to running, but no matter what your personal views are, I'm convinced you will find Jocelyn to be inspiring. Welcome to the Planted Runner.

Feel like you're crashing mid-run…even though you're following a plan and doing “all the right things”? This episode breaks down the real reasons women runners hit the wall during long runs, and spoiler alert: it's not just about the miles. From under-fueling to misunderstood carb timing to gut training (yes, that's a thing!), I'm giving you practical, science-backed tips you can start using this week. Whether you're currently fueling with gels, real food, or coffee and vibes, this episode will help you stop bonking and start thriving.
For years, the standard has been that you need to complete a 20-mile long run in training to be prepared for a marathon. But what if I told you that might not be necessary at all? Today, we're going to break down why a 20-mile long run isn't essential for marathon success and how you can train smarter—not harder.Running 20 miles is no small feat. It's exhausting, physically draining, and takes a toll on your body. That's part of the reason why many runners get injured or experience burnout during training. Spending hours on your feet during these ultra-long runs can be mentally and physically taxing, especially if your body isn't used to that kind of effort.So, does it really give you what you need for a marathon?The truth is, the marathon is about pacing and managing energy, not necessarily about surviving a 20-mile training run. And that's where alternative approaches come into play.
Cue the drumroll... the wait is finally over—the very first Tea & Trails Ultra has arrived! This week, we're diving headfirst into epic long runs that test the limits of sanity, other podcasts, and reliving a trail fuel related disaster. Of course, we also serve up our usual dose of TV talk, because even ultrarunners need sofa time. And through it all, we're reminded that sometimes the boldest move is choosing to rest. So here's to the noble rest day: the quiet champion whispering, “You've earned that nap... and maybe just one more episode.”https://paulforbrainrecovery.enthuse.com/cf/160-mile-yorkshire-wolds-way-challengeXMILES UK - Listeners now receive 10% of their order value back as store credit via the link below.https://xmiles.avln.me/c/RiwxnARvfHeRRunderwear - Use code TEATRAILS15 for 15% off your orderhttps://runderwear.avln.me/c/GPVNMgMfYfLPSHOKZ - Use code TEA102025 to receive £10 off.https://uk.shokz.com?sca_ref=7394994.MfsDQZBAeLQihiPrecision Fuel & Hydration https://visit.pfandh.com/3GKxHjUPrecision Fuel & Hydration Planner https://visit.pfandh.com/3RuP25zHarrier - Use code TEA10 for 10% off. https://harrierrunfree.co.uk/Fenixlight Limited - Use code T&T5 for 5% off your order.https://www.fenixlight.co.uk/Protein Rebel - Use code Tea15 for 15% off your first order. https://proteinrebel.com/Centurion Running - Use code TEAANDTRAILS10 to receive 10% off *Excluding Sale Items.https://centurionrunning.com/GOODR - Use code GOTEAANDTRAILS to reveive 10% off your order.https://goodr.avln.me/c/VLEmsAIZCDtmLIFE JACKET SKIN PROTECTION - Use code GOTYOURBACK for 10% off your first order.https://lifejacketskin.com/PRIMUS UK - Use code TT-PRIMUS-20 for 20& off.https://primusuk.avln.me/c/kBWmOJaEiByDContent may contain affiliate links which can help support and grow this channel at no extra cost to you.

The Long Run is a staple of life for many distance runners. It is also pretty demanding on the body. Here are our favorite “bang for your buck” options!
283. SHOULD YOU RUN LONG EVERY WEEKEND?Every weekend runners around the world gear up to run long… But should you be doing a LONG run over 90 min every weekend? When getting RRCA certified 10 years ago, one of the concepts they beat into our head was that we don't/should not run long every single weekend. The justification was about the glycogen storages needing to be replenished 1x a month there should be a cut back week where we don't do activity over 90 min to allow for that. This is a good argument… but let's do a deeper dive Cut Back Weeks What is the def of a long run 7 day is just easy mentally for people to create but its truly ot ideal Training is a high stress load on the body. Your body needs macro and micro rest It allows you the chance to recover from the hard training You don't actually get faster from the training, you get faster from the recovery periods Other things to do instead of a long run Cut back long run A short workout
