In this episode of the Ultrarunning Sam Podcast we speak to Dr Martin Jones - expert in all things sleep!
Martin has spent many years studying the effects of sleep and sleep withdrawal on athletes and soldiers around the world.
We dive into why as ultra- runners we need to focus on the superpower that is sleep and how we can optimise it in our training.
We speak about how to approach multi day events and the inevitable lack of sleep.
We talk power naps and how much sleep is too much in a high pressure race situation.
Martin also gave some tips on how to overcome jetlag when travelling abroad for races across multiple time zones.
A very informative listen!
