What is the purpose of your training? Thijs Nijhuis ŚOB #080

Another English episode! Welcome back after break and I bring you Thijs Nijhuis – Danish long-distance runner! In 2020 he ran 2:10:57 at the Seville Marathon and he qualified for the 2020 Summer Olympics.

During our talks we discussed several topics:

• how does Thijs train?
• how does cooperation with his coach look like?
• why was the olympic marathon the most difficult run of his life?
• how does he combine being a medical student with fast running?
