S03: E06 - How to execute a cross country race

In this week's episode Lisa and Brian start to tackle their own cross country races, which initiates a conversation on different cross country racing strategies for mid-packers. They offer suggestions on how to confront a cross country race to ensure you get the best possible result without running yourself into the ground across challenging terrain. Brian also discusses his favourite topic, shoes, and delves into possible footwear options for racing cross country. Lisa describes losing her mojo due to life stresses getting in the way. Meanwhile, Brian is getting in some good training but lacks motivation to race, instead he takes the parkrun option for a threshold session and goes long over the hills on Sunday.
