153: Boost Your VO2 Max With No Additional Training

We’re always talking about fine margins in running, and this week Andy, Rick, and Sarah dive into two potential game-changers: altitude training and the surprisingly powerful role of hot baths.

What is altitude training? How does your body adapt to it? Who’s actually using it—and should you be? All that gets unpacked in this week’s episode.

ALSO... Rick is forced to answer a question he’d very much prefer to avoid… to Andy and Sarah’s absolute delight.
