Do I change my goal after a small setback in training? We help Schalk with his Bill Rowan Comrades plan

--:--
Do you need to change your goal after a small setback in training? Markus chats to one of our CoachParry Online Training Club members - Schalk Visagie - about whether he needs to change his goal of 3:30 marathon after missing 2 weeks of training, especially given that his Comrades goals for 2019 is a Bill Rowan medal. Markus and Schalk also go into depth around the theory of running slow to run fast, keeping your easy runs easy and your hard runs hard.
