Clayton Young’s Boston Marathon Prep Continues
Olympian Clayton Young's Boston Marathon Build | Episode 2
Clayton Young, 2024 Olympian and top-10 finisher in a World Marathon Major, is taking us inside his training just 11 weeks out from the Boston Marathon.
In his latest YouTube episode, Octane | Boston Marathon Build, Clayton shares how Stryd’s power data helped him execute a demanding training week, featuring two high-volume workouts and a 20-mile long run on the Jared Ward Loop, a hilly course designed to mimic Boston’s terrain.
“During my Saturday long run, it was nice to validate my effort with the power data from Stryd. Especially during the 3-mile pickup with hills, headwind, and tailwind through different sections of the route. Even though each mile was "slower", my power increased each mile from 389 to 390 to 400 watts.”
