We’ll dive into why this happens, what most runners are getting wrong in their weekly training structure, and how to finally break through that performance plateau.

You’ll learn the difference between easy Zone 2 running, controlled threshold work, and the mistake of living in the “grey zone” where you’re always tired but never truly adapting. Coach Alicia also shares real coaching insight, athlete patterns she sees every day, and the simple shifts that lead to real endurance gains.
