Proof of Time Half Marathon Training Week 13
Season 3 of Running to the Castle Podcast w/ Dr. Ali Marty
Episode 245 How Do I Know If I Should Run Straight Through or Use Run-Walk Intervals? runDisney Races
In this episode of Running to the Castle, Dr. Ali recaps a rare 100%-completion week of Proof of Time half marathon training, hitting every cardio and strength workout on the plan.
She breaks down a tough 10K race pace tempo run, an early-morning cross-training walk with Levi, and a strength day where she pushed to a full 45-minute session.
The heart of the episode is her run-only experiment: testing what happens when she runs straight through instead of using run-walk intervals, and why she's collecting data across multiple runs before drawing any conclusions.
She also shares a genuinely surprising long run comparison to last year, plus a hydration hack for beating the Las Vegas heat.
