Episode notes
Start Small To Rebuild Consistency
- Start small and specific: commit to short, daily actions like 10–15 minutes to rebuild habit and confidence.
- Use duration-based targets (e.g., 30 minutes) instead of strict distance or pace when returning or rebooting training.
Small Sessions Compound Into Real Gains
- Every small session compounds into fitness and confidence even when the A goal is unrealistic right now.
- Consistent, modest work produces resilience and prepares you for bigger goals later.
Three-Week Running Break Turned Strength Reset
- Eddie paused running for three weeks after his marathon and focused on strength and mobility instead of immediate mileage.
- He misses long slow runs but values the recovery and gym return to rebuild durability.
