Hosted by Bakline Running · sports · EN
About this Podcast:
Legwork is a podcast that celebrates the unseen efforts that keep the sport of running moving forward. We go behind the scenes with club leaders, race directors, and running community organizers to uncover the work that keeps us on the roads and trails. We talk to coaches to understand the evolving science of how we train, and we recognize the effort built into all the miles that come before we lace up for the starting line.What matters isn’t always visible. Explore what lies beyond the shortcuts.
