From Bodybuilder to Boston Qualifier: Can John Goldman Accomplish the Unreasonable?

John Goldman is a former bodybuilder and currently the CEO of Rebel Health Alliance. After running a 5:13 marathon last December, he's not attempting the unreasonable: to qualify for Boston in a year. He enlisted the coaching of physiologist and ultra-endurance coach Alan Couzens to guide his training. This episode is a case study on how to accomplish unreasonable goals. How do you progress your fitness so you can run almost two hours faster in the marathon in only a year? What do you focus on? What is the correct order of what to focus on? How is his progress going after only two months? Thanks Previnex Previnex is offering 15% off your first purchase at previnex.com with code jason15.
