Loved having Alex join us again to go over some listener submitted questions!
We covered tips on how to make VO2 Max training better, Tahoe Trail 100 race prep, heat training and how Alex implements it, why more pros don’t use Classified’s hub system, and a question on whether the “wider is better” trend will have mountain bikers on 2.6" tires!
