The eternal debate continues. What's more important, strength or speed?

The boys first find that even defining the terms is difficult, and spend too much time figuring out what qualifies as strength and what is speed. You would think that after all that discussion, that they'd come to a consensus on the terminology, but then you'd be wrong. They do not.

In the end, did they come to a conclusion about what is better? Absolutely not, it's a LOT of middle of the road takes here.

Dylan then presents some fun coaching scenarios and the talk turns on how they would each handle a number of different situations including; how to help a runner who is stuck in a run and not improving, and working with a "blank slate" athlete.

On this episode of the Mind Your Miles Podcast Will takes over hosting duties, and gives us the lowest energy intro to date, if you're able to stay awake through that, you'll hear the guys answer their first listener question!

The question is from a longtime cyclist moving into running and he asks about how to approach running training in comparison to cycling training.

Then the discussion turns to the 20 mile long run, and the crusade to end Americas long obsession over running 20 miles before the marathon.

The boys are back and start off this episode with a quick check in on how everyone is doing, talking about Will's foot issues, and then get into a discussion on ultra nutrition and Nick's plan for his upcoming 100k race.

Then it's time for a round of Buy or Sell! The fellas discuss a smorgasbord of running and coaching topics ranging from ice baths, listening to music while racing, and whether the NCAA system is the best one for developing young runners.

Will goes on a rant about the NIL, and doesn't seem to grasp the concept of the game, and continually tries neither buy nor sell any topic.
