Mark has tackled some wild challenges recently—running a full marathon in crocs, attempting a sub-4-minute mile (downhill), and even training like Alex Yee. But now, he’s pushing himself even further. 💪
Mark takes on one of the toughest workouts out there: the legendary double-threshold session (aka "Norwegian Method") used by Olympic champion and world record holder Jakob Ingebrigtsen. This intense training session truly puts Mark to the test—will he conquer it or crumble? 🏃♂️🔥
