Today’s episode features longtime friend, curler and run lead from Toronto Pedro Malvar. We talk about competing as a student athlete, learning how to train specifically for curling, and how you can use running as part of your off-ice training regime safely and effectively.
Want some tips to help you start running? Curious how to juggle strength training with a running routine? Want to hear about Pedro’s 900km run to Chicago?
