Today we look at protecting and maximizing your time and effort so that you can be faster next year. We talk about the importance of "raising your floor" so you are ahead of the game and late season training doesn't feel so pressure packed or overwhelming. Now is the time. We also talk about diet and our cultural push to eat out of habit instead of needs. We look at shrinking the gap for your next PR, avoiding burnout, and rekindling the love of training. We explore training Monday through Friday only. We talk about mental and emotional flexibility and why it's not about how it looks right now, but getting it done.
