“Consistency first, volume second, and maybe some more specific workouts if necessary. That gets phenomenal results, you don’t stress your body too much, the results you get from building your aerobic engine are significant" - Jason Cherriman   Jason Cherriman (Strava) is a 38 year old elite runner from Leeds in the UK. His current marathon PB is 2:21 and he is trying to break 2:20 at the London Marathon this Sunday!    A recent podcast guest  Jonathan Walton brought up Jason’s website Running Obsessive and I was blown away by the detail and thought he puts into his training and publicly shares for others to learn from.    In today’s Extramilest Show, he shares many recommendations for marathoners of different levels who are looking to improve. We take a deep dive into heart rate training, aerobic development, measuring various data points, heat training, tapering and much more.    Some background stats on Jason:    His max heart rate tested in a lab is 198   His vo2max during the test was 70   MAF hr is 147 (180 - 38 + 5)   In the past 10 weeks he ran an average of 111 miles (179km) per week, that’s about 14 hours a week, 2 hours a day   75 to 80% of his runs at low HR (140 or below)   His average HR during marathon races is 174 to 177   I learned a lot on today’s episode and made a lot of notes for my own upcoming training blocks. I would love to hear from you, what was the one key takeaway for you from this show. Please let me know in the comments!    SHOW NOTES   Jason’s background, a bit overweight in his twenties [3:15]   His stress fracture injury [5:30]       How he combines running while working full time, being a husband and dad to 2 young daughters [6:10]   Jason’s first marathon experience in 2009 at the Hamburg marathon in 3:13 [8:20]     Bonking spectacularly at mile 17 {11:20]    Jason’s approach for his next marathons from there [12:45]   Current PR’s [16:40]   How Jason has been able to continue improving from 3:13 marathon to 2:21 marathon so far [17:59]   How Jason goes about Heart Rate Training [22:00]    Jason’s VO2Max 70, Max HR 198 and MAF 147 [24:35]   Measuring aerobic efficiency [27:00]   The fine line between stress and fatigue levels [28:00 ]   Data analysis with Elevate Strava plugin with fitness vs fatigue [31:20]    Marathon tapering data and thoughts [34:30]   Power meters on a bike vs running [35:30]   Jason runs with a Garmin watch 645 [37:10]]    Calculating fluid loss + calories lost, so burn rate at different intensities.
