@Jayson Lucas awesome!! See you there!
Fitness - Running
Hi everyone! I was asked this weekend to post some tips and information about running for those in Skool. I am curious what people may like to see. I am currently training to do the full Ironman next year here in Ottawa. I certainly recommend joining different run groups across Ottawa and am happy to share some of the ones I go to, specifically I go to the 25th on Thursday evenings. Please comment below what you would like to see, as I am more than happy to give tips and advice on what has helped me pass my shuttle run and upkeep my fitness at a high standard where I am able to surpass the shuttle run requirements.

@Rakin Mannan Hey Rakin, one big thing would be to add strengthening exercises for your calves/legs - specifically ones for runners/endurance athletes. Try adding in some plyometrics and focus on doing unilateral exercises when it comes to legs as running is essentially a unilateral exercise, as you are using one leg at a time

@James Bright i would say try getting runs in outside and try to come out this weekend for the beep test practice that @Alison Ritchie posted about! A big thing for why I recommend running outside is that running on a treadmill essentially helps you, not requiring you to use your muscles to push off the ground due to the moving belt. Running outside is also better for improving your VO2 max due to the increased level of effort for the same speed. Try adding some long runs as well at a zone 2 pace (a pace you could hold while having a conversation with someone) I go to a run club on Thursdays at 7PM that meets at Landsdowne in front of Sporting Life! I highly recommend coming out - they have different pace groups.
