  Why Running Slower Makes You Faster | Slay Stronger Runner | Episode 182 15.08.2026 8p

  What if the fastest way to become a better runner was to slow down?Most recreational runners make the same mistake: they run every session at a moderately hard pace. Too hard to recover from properly. Too easy to create the benefits of a true speed session.The result? They feel tired, frustrated and confused about why their pace is no longer improving.In Episode 4 of the SLAY Stronger Runner Series, Olympian, coach and SLAY founder Louise Hazel explains why easy running is one of the most powerful tools in your half-marathon training program.This episode breaks down Zone 2 training, conversational pace, the 80/20 approach and the difference between training hard and training intelligently.In this episode, you’ll learn:• Why running faster every day does not necessarily make you faster• What Zone 2 training actually means• How to use the conversation test during an easy run• Whether you should train by heart rate, pace or perceived effort• How slower running builds your aerobic engine• Why so many recreational runners become trapped in the “grey zone”• Why Olympic athletes do not train at maximum intensity every day• How to use the SLAY Traffic Light System to structure your training• Why becoming dependent on your running watch can disconnect you from your body• Why holding yourself back sometimes requires more discipline than pushing harderThe SLAY Traffic Light System🟢 Green sessions: Easy runs, recovery and conversational effort🟠 Amber sessions: Strength training and controlled steady work 🔴 Red sessions: Intervals, race pace and high-intensity trainingYour week should contain far more green than red.This Week’s ChallengeComplete one easy run without looking at your watch. Do not chase a pace. Do not obsess over distance.Run at a conversational effort, pay attention to your breathing and finish feeling as though you could have continued.Then ask yourself: Did I enjoy the run more? Did I recover faster? Did I finish feeling better than usual?Coming Next Week: Fuel Like an AthleteWe’ll cover what to eat before and after running, protein, carbohydrates, hydration, electrolytes and whether trying to lose weight during half-marathon training could compromise your performance.Subscribe and train with us every week as we build towards race day.What do you find harder: running fast or allowing yourself to slow down?
