The Forging Iron Podcast with Griffin Jaworski
We dive into the science and stories of endurance athletes, authors, physicians, nutritionists, and psychologists to see what comes to the surface.
"As iron sharpens iron, people sharpen people." - Proverbs 27:17.
As an endurance coach, athlete and current Master's in Applied Sport Psychology student, my aim is to help you make the most out of life through sport.
Happy training!
- Coach Griffin
The Forging Iron Podcast with Griffin Jaworski
Brady Holmer: An unorthodox (but scientific) marathon approach
Today's episode is a real treat. Brady Holmer, or Brady from X, as he's referred to in the streets, drops by to give us a glimpse of his unorthodox marathon approach. Spoiler alert, he used it to crush a sub 2:28 marathon...only running 4 days per week!
We talk about what he enjoys about the approach and why he thinks it's working, as well as why he started it in the first place. We recorded this a week out from his race, so it was great to see his confidence in the plan even before knowing the result!
Whether you're gearing up for your first endurance event or are a veteran in the sport, Brady's mindset, training, and knowledge are sure to give you some powerful insights.
