Notes for the long run

One reflection every two weeks on training, recovery, or longevity. Written from the perspective of science and the trail. No motivational noise.

What you get

01

Evidence-based training

Periodization, load, adaptation. What the science says, what works in practice, what is marketing noise.

02

Recovery and longevity

Sleep, HRV, oxidative stress, strength training after 35. A perspective of decades ahead, not just the next race.

03

Race strategy

Pacing, nutrition, checkpoint management. An analytical approach to ultra and mountain running.

Example topics

Topics we have written about or will cover in the coming weeks.
