Frustrated that your running (or hiking, biking, etc.) times haven’t improved after a year of training?
You might be making a common mistake—running too fast!
In this episode, I share why so many endurance athletes get tripped up by the numbers.
We'll also break down the science to learn how slowing down can actually help you speed up.
Key Takeaways:
- Why most recreational runners (especially us perfectionists!) are trying to go too fast.
- The dreaded Zone X (dead zone) and how to stay out of it.
- Why most elite athletes do 80–90% of their endurance training at an easy pace.
- How the 80/20 approach can help you win at endurance training ... and life.
- Why your perfectionist brain violent resists running slow and what to do about it.
