Breaking the Brain's Finish Line


Most of the time, the brain's governor on our abilities is a good thing, it stops us from injuring ourselves and others. But sometimes we want to take the governor off and just go, especially if the governor is set at a fairly conservative level. Many events in running push various physiological processes to their extreme, from the 400/800 overloading lactic acid production to the marathon pushing carbohydrate stores to their bare minimum. Today I'll speak with Dylan Geringer about how we can take findings from neuroscience to improve our running performance.
