We’re 8 weeks out from the Two Oceans 21K, and the biggest performance boost right now isn’t more mileage…
In this episode, Jamie & Ntutu break down why recovery is where adaptation actually happens, how to structure easy runs and rest days, the fueling rules (including the 90-minute guideline), the power of sleep, and whether you should trust your watch’s recovery metrics.
If you want to arrive at the Two Oceans 21K start line fresh, strong, and ready to race... this one’s essential listening.
