@BlainSonnier2 It matters less bc of the increased calorie burn. Sprinters aren’t running 70-150+ mpw + intensity/strength/XT. If you’re training that much, you can dominate McD’s
English
@JasonFitz1 Explain. I’d think what you eat would matter more for endurance athletes.
English
"clean eating" is a myth. In example after example, eating enough and hitting those macros is far more important when you're training hard

@JasonFitz1 He runs for 14 seconds at a time. Let’s not act like he’s some endurance athlete lol
English
@CatholicRunners He's curious what would happen if someone went the opposite route and ran 60mpw with the same hard workouts and long runs. Basically, strip out the supporting base miles.
My coach and I think it would fail as a strategy... But we'll never know because no pro would ever do that!
English
@JasonFitz1 No, I was curious about the debate topic and his stance on high mileage.
English
My former coach is now forwarding email debates he's having with Amby Burfoot on mileage. It is fascinating 🍿

My college xc coach forwarded me this article. The best know that mileage is #1

@CatholicRunners If you're asking if he's currently running high mileage, the answer is probably not. He is 79 years old...

What's the hardest workout you ever ran before a 5k race?
In our latest video on YT (in next post), I shared some of my favorite foundational and 5k-specific workouts to help you race faster.
My favorite strategy? Post-workout speed development like 4x200m 💪

Some call these Jerry miles. Some call them Badger miles.
Notice how no one calls them Badger/Jerry 1600's. Really makes you think.

TIL what "Jerry Miles" are.

@Brady_H real heads know them as Badger Miles

"In the marathon world, mileage happens to be the number one variable in performance." 2:04 Boston marathoner Charles Hicks (@BowermanTC) talks to @LetsRun about: 🔹 Ditching "Jerry Miles" with Jerry Schumacher 🔹 Why his "North Star" is 150 miles/week 🔹 His @ChiMarathon prep & 2028 standards letsrun.com/news/2026/07/l…

tl;dr
Don't let anybody convince you that mileage doesn't matter. If you're running long distances, it is arguably the most important element of your training.
Instead of thinking, "I can't run more," ask yourself, "How can I run more?"

"Mileage happens to be, I think, the number one variable in performance [for the marathon].
If you think of your hierarchy of needs, mileage sits at the bottom of the pyramid, but it kind of enables everything else." - 2:04 marathoner Charles Hicks

They’re incredibly comfortable! My faves are the FWD VIA 2 and the Experience Flow 3 (both 4mm drop)

@JasonFitz1 @AltraRunning My last 3 running shoes have been @AltraRunning. I don’t think I’ll go back to Nike (my old go-to) or any other brand.
English
Thank you @AltraRunning for supporting our podcast!
Their 4mm heel-toe drop shoes are perfect for shorter runs and I love using the zero drop models to build foot strength.

This clip is from the latest episode of the Strength Running Podcast with my private client Kiki on how she’s PR’d in so many distances with virtually no injuries 💪🏻

Sometimes, pace isn’t the real goal: it’s speed, intensity, and output.
Knowing the true intentions behind a workout helps you differentiate, subtly evolving how you execute your training over time.
