Time flies by and my first 70.3 is just around the corner. Scared? Not the right word. Apprehensive would better describe my feeling. I train as much as I can with a big focus on listening to my body. Whenever I feel it needs some extra rest, rest time I give it. I don’t care about not putting 15 hours of training every week. I aim for long term benefit. I want to be healthy for life, not burn myself to peak for an event then feeling empty, burnt and broken for a month.
That being written, I see my body able to support more and more training charge in volume and intensity every year. I am not worried about my strategy. My instinct proved my right several times so far.
What’s your strategy? How do you know it’s time to give training some slack?
