In this episode, we dive deep into the science and psychology of marathon and half marathon race strategy with Dr. Brian Hanley, senior lecturer in sport and exercise biomechanics at Leeds Beckett University.\nBrian shares his expertise on why even the best training adaptations can be wasted without a smart pacing plan, and how recreational runners can use proven strategies to maximize performance, avoid blow-ups, and run smarter on race day.\n🏃‍♂️ What You’ll Learn in This Episode\nWhy even pacing (or equal effort) is the gold standard—and why most runners get it wrong\nHow to balance physiology and psychology on race day to avoid starting too fast\nThe difference between pacing at the elite level vs. recreational running\nHow weather, terrain, and heat affect pacing—and practical ways to adapt\nThe role of pacers in reducing cognitive load and helping you stick to your plan\nWhy women often pace better than men in marathons\nHow to use training and shorter races to dial in your goal pace\nThe importance of self-reflection and avoiding the “fundamental attribution error” after a race","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/yu6CIQL0sKEEn32UMHvSGj80p9Ns_xcjLGp-EWyJlqQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM5ODgwLzE2Nzkw/MTQzMTYtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
