AVOID This Running Habit If YOU WANT TO GET FASTER - welcome back to another video and today I am sharing with you the one thing that I would avoid if you want to get faster. Contrary to popular belief, top end speed work is just the icing on the cake but its a running habit that runners just cant shift so today I wanted to share some thoughts on why I think runners need to shift their focus away from finishing interval sessions on their hands and knees and instead focus on the bread and butter work that will massively help them get faster in 2026!
