Today, the Run Smarter Patrons have submitted questions to Frank on how to survive and thrive as a masters runner. I ask: 1.) Would you recommend increasing or decreasing the amount of cross-training as athletes get older? 2.) Is it okay to train for a marathon with only easy, long and tempo runs? 3.) I get injured every time I run more than 3 days per week. Is this a function of a masters runner? 4.) Should we increase or decrease strength training as we get older? 5.) Are there any dietary changes for master runners? Run Smarter YouTube Channel  Become a patron!
