Jeff Messer, PhD, is my guest on this episode. I recorded the episode with Jeff in the spring of 2020 for the Coaching Runners Podcast, at a time when runners were asking a simple question: Can I train as I normally do during Covid? Because so many runners are asking the same question as we head into the winter, I thought I should repost this interview.

Jeff shares his recommendations based partly on two primary research articles, which you can read at the links below.

The conversation also includes a discussion of training for high school athletes, which I think you'll find interesting if you're a student of the sport.

Thanks Jeff!
