Episode 226 What run/walk intervals will make me faster as a slow runner? runDisney Races

In this episode of Running to the Castle, Dr. Ali breaks down one of the most common assumptions in the run/walk world:  that running longer is the key to getting faster. 

Using a real question from a Stronger Faster Finisher member preparing for a 10-miler, Dr. Ali walks through the math behind run/walk pacing and reveals four distinct levers every runner can pull to improve their overall pace. 

The episode challenges runners to think beyond just their run interval and consider the surprising power of walking faster.
