86. The Last Marathon Prep (with Mads)
•
The last 10 days before Stockholm Marathon. How should you think and prepare during the final days before race day?
Coach Mads joins us for a chat about the final preparations before the marathon: carb loading, heat training, fueling, sleeping well, not messing with your routines and how to think around the last sessions before race day. Probably a good one to listen to if you’re running Stockholm next weekend!
Good stuff!
Runners FM is recorded at Downtown Camper in Stockholm - the best hotel in town!
