It has been a LONG time since most of us have had the opportunity to race, which might lead to being a bit rusty. Today we explore the different race strategies that are proven to be most effective, broken down into whether you are an Open / Age Group Athlete looking to run your best race or a Competitive athlete seeking your best finishing position. We talk pacing, mindset, pain management, strategy, and more. The first few minutes are specific to the Virtual Races coming up this weekend (Beer Mile and Burpee 10k). At the 27:15 mark the "real" racing talk begins. Enjoy!
