42. What Missing Training Actually Means for Your Race
When you miss a week of training, a key long run, or a stretch of workouts, it doesn’t just disrupt your schedule, it rattles your confidence. This week, I talk about what’s really happening when missed training starts to feel like a disaster, and why that panic has very little to do with the miles you missed.
This episode will help you rethink what “being ready” really means, let go of the false promise of perfect preparation, and show up to your race with more flexibility, confidence, and curiosity. When you stop fighting uncertainty and start working with it, you free yourself to run the race that’s actually available to you and sometimes, that race turns out better than the one you planned.
