059. Coach Lab with Daniel Rowland | How to plan your trail running season - part 1

It's easy to get excited about races and goals, but how much can we really handle until it's not sustainable anymore? How many races is it realistic to plan? What is a good way to plan the season in order to perform well, recover enough and have fun? Should every athlete have an off season? What should our periodization look like? 
Just a few of the questions that we will discuss with Daniel Rowland, a trail and ultramarathon runner and Vert.run coach, one of the most interesting Twitter profiles I follow and a great expert in endurance science. In the first part of this conversation, we will cover in particular:
1) choosing goal races or objectives
2) what is your starting point right now?
3) key factors in planning the season
Enjoy!
