🚨 The last paper of my PhD is out in @MSSE Regular Long Runs and Higher Training Volumes are Associated with Better Running Economy Durability in Performance Matched Well-Trained Male Runners 🙏🏻 Rich Blagrove & Jonathan Folland Temporary free download. 🔗 journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/ab... 🧵 1/7

3rd place in the Young Investigator Award at @ecssofficial.bsky.social, presenting in front of 1500+ people. “You are here because you are excellent, and the quality of your research is excellent”. Among the kindest words I’ve ever been told. As a young scientist, they mean the world 🙏🏼 Ad maiora.

This Tuesday I will give an oral presentation at the @ecssofficial.bsky.social annual congress in Rimini about: The effect of 90 and 120 min of running on the determinants of endurance performance in well-trained male marathoners 01.07.2025, 14.30

📣 New paper out in European Journal of Applied Physiology We discuss an often-overlooked aspect in sports science and rehab research: The importance of matching training load across interventions. Nice collaboration led by Tomek Kowalski. 📄 Open access 🔗 link.springer.com/article/10.1... 🧵1/5

New paper out in Scand J Med Sci Sports! 
We tested the reliability of running economy (RE) and other physiological parameters during 90 min of running.

➡️ Running economy is highly reliable in a fatigued state, a 👍🏼 implication for testing durability

Our new durability paper is out in SJMSS! We tested how endurance performance determinants change after heavy-intensity running (90 and 120 min) in well-trained marathoners. 📌Below details of what we’ve found. 🆓 Open-Access 📄 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... 🧵1/14

🚨 New study 🚨 The biggest project of my PhD is out in MSSE journal. 🔑 findings: Strength training improves running economy durability & high-intensity performance following prolonged running. 🙏🏼 R. Blagrove and J. Folland for the SUPERvision on this. 🔗 journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/ab... 🧵 1/10

I've recently passed my viva. An absolute pleasure forcing Prof Ronnestad and @drmarkburnley.bsky.social to discuss my PhD thesis for 4 hours – they tested my #durability Thanks again to my supervisors Richard Blagrove and Jonathan Folland for this 4 years journey. @lborouniversity.bsky.social
