The main topic was a discussion of a difficult, nuanced topic: how to think about power development over time, and what that means in a messy athletic life. It all comes from a “Dear Younger Me” letter that David wrote to his 11-year-old self, and it extends forward to the performance revolution we’re seeing across endurance sports. Running is a POWER SPORT. That discussion starts at 55:04. And this one was full of the best topics! Other topics include: the downhill “monster truck” running cue, 5 things we’re trying now, Josh Kerr’s mile world record, overnight drug testing at the Tour de France, the Enervit lactate gel, why Kate Courtney is our favorite athlete, and questions on adult potty training, uphill treadmill threshold work, the mental side of running hard, and the Leadville documentary. When in doubt, remember: the shockwave machine is not what it looks like. We love you all!
