We harnessed our ice-bath F-bombs to talk about the weakly understood importance of fatigue resistance in endurance performance, embracing athletics as a creative process, and being vulnerable. We appreciate you so much, thank you! WOOHOO!

We pranced like show ponies before talking about 5 tips for racing, outlook when things sometimes suck, and improving adaptation/reducing injury risk. Thank you all, we appreciate you so much! WOOHOO!

The podcast explores heart rate variability in relation to training, the complexity of identity, and the illusion of putting work in a box. They discuss personal experiences with learning, evolving musical preferences, internet aggression, concepts of self-love, magic, and the multi-faceted nature of personal identity. They also delve into the significance of heart rate variability in training, coaching, and overall health, highlighting its role in reflecting stress, recovery, and adaptation for athletes.

We celebrated the 50th episode (WOOHOO!) by talking about why you don't need to do huge volume in ultra training, self-judgment and uncertainty in life, and lots of bonus topics (SPACE FACTS!). We appreciate you all so much! THANK YOU!

We stocked up on pizza and otter references to talk about the endocrine system impacts of low energy availability, the problem with overthinking, and a bit too much info about otters. We appreciate you all so much, THANK YOU! WOOHOO!

Sports can be the difference between a fully realized identity and feeling alone in the world. Inclusion is about human rights because it is about identity and acceptance for people that have faced marginalization and discrimination. All real-world evidence supports the fairness of inclusion, and future scientific conversations need to be grounded in human rights. So much love for you all! THANK YOU!

We brought BIG PADDINGTON BEAR ENERGY to the podcast to talk about improving technical running (and dealing with inevitable falling), stress buckets, and moving past regrets in life. You all are amazing! WOOHOO!
