In this episode we chat with author Andrew Snow about his book Run Elite. Andrew is very passionate about helping runners improve their performance and it shows in the podcast.

Run Elite covers all aspects of high-level marathon training. Although the reference is mostly to marathon running throughout the book, the information provided is applicable to longer and shorter distances also. The book consists of 22 chapter divided into 3 sections:
Mindset
Elite Training
Special Workouts and Elite Hacks

Some of the unique things that this book discusses includes:
How an unreasonable belief in yourself can help you perform better.
The triphasic model of training.
The surprising performance benefits of cold exposure.
Special workouts like alternation runs and sarcomere runs to help peak your training.
