#Ep 82 | Everything About Running Is Just 2 Questions

September 15, 2026 · 54 min

Show notes

Matt strips endurance sport down to two questions: are you fast enough, and are you durable enough? He lays out the exact markers for each, why speed takes far longer to build than durability, and how to reverse-engineer a full year of training from one goal time. Then the announcement 18 months in the making: TPP's new coaching platform, built for the runners who've been asking for it. First 20 beta testers get it free.
