Focus on the details is very important when it comes to your race, but what are the right details? Today, we get into the "no man's land" of training. Pre-race planning, effective taper, and post race discoveries. Data can be important, but obsessing over collecting information has nothing to do with racing well. How are you using your data, and better yet, what are the major things you need to nail down before you go on to the minors? What are you going to do if something goes wrong in a race? How can you make this race feel easier? Data is like the ingredients for a recipe, but how you put them together is the most important part. Topics: Trips into town and hoodie weather No man's land of training Taper - So easy to lose focus Race analysis When the race blows up or did it just hurt? Information overload Collecting data and using it the right way Data is like meal ingredients When race times stay about the same for you Inside the race is a puzzle Had a good race, but think it wasn't?
