About this listen

Altitude training reliably improves aerobic capacity — yet many 800 runners return fitter but less able to execute under race pressure. In this episode, we examine why the 800 is a precision event under fatigue, how altitude can quietly disturb rhythm and late-race access, and why elite systems judged methods by what survived at 600m, not by laboratory gains.
