FATIGUE, MINDSET & ADAPTATION 🧠⚡
When you wrap up a 4-day training block:
Day 1: 10K Hilly Tempo (on feel)
Day 2: 10.5K Tempo with athlete
Day 3: Light Run with young athlete + Hilly Long Run
Day 4: Short Tempo with young athlete + Easy Trail
📊 At the end: 5h51 | 56 km | 1,018 m D+
⌚️ Garmin Readiness: 1/100 (« Poor / Let the body recover ») 📉
Due to student scheduling, it meant two short nights—a great exercise to tame the mind, observe mental stability under fatigue, and navigate low recovery.
🎯 The last sessions ended in the heat, timed to match the upcoming race conditions in Taiping 🇲🇾.
💡3 key concepts from this block:
1️⃣ Stay humble & think long-term: Put aside the ego, embrace the minimum effective and adapted dose for your current level.
2️⃣ Train on feel: Except for structured sessions with athletes, listening to internal cues avoids overpushing, keeps injury risk low, and ensures training at the right intensity.
3️⃣ Anchor in Breathwork & Meditation: Mindful, balanced breathing and meditation before sleep keep me grounded and connected to the source.
