Data can be useful to guide how you approach training.

However, we tend to get too focused by certain metrics, like how many miles you ran, pace, heart rate, and cadence.

We can get disconnected from ourselves, like neglecting how you feel and move as you run.

You don’t always need your watch when you run.

Watch Kelvin Kiptum as he ran the fastest debut marathon ever.

With 10km left in the race, he took off his watch and ended up running the fastest splits in the marathon ever.

$When you are injured, but have a race coming up “It’s just a hairline fracture” Navigating running injuries is FRUSTRATING, especially when you have put so much time preparing for a race. As runners, we tend to “play down” our injuries and symptoms. We hope that it will get us back to running sooner. However, this may lead to a more aggressive plan that may exceed what the body should be doing at the current moment. And end up leading to a slower recovery. As clinicians working with runners, we also tend to do the SAME when helping a runner through the injuries. We may be “overly” optimistic to help gain the runner’s trust initially. However, when expectations do not match reality, the runner may end up being more frustrated in themselves as things are “taking longer than they should.” The best outcomes come from: Transparency from BOTH the runner and the clinician. By giving clear information, it will help map out the best way to navigate the injury based on the runner’s short term and long term goals. Clear communication is key! - Keep in mind that this is for educational purposes only. This does not replace medical advice. - Footage from: Grown Ups 2$
