Welp - I celebrated boxing day by spending the evening at urgent care. A chill mountain bike ride ended with a crash that had me worried. Luckily I skated by with a sprained wrist and elbow. But I'll still race! This is how I approach my tapers.

It's week 2 of my 10 week journey to Black Canyon! In this episode, I take a little extra time to talk about the three ways this year I've gotten a lot more precise with my fueling and how that has helped me in races and long runs. Plus, I got a few runs done during golden hour in San Francisco, resulting in some epic footage.

      @@Jasonvdm Well everybody is different i guess but i prefer hearing about the fueling, race strategy, why you're doing what in training etc etc over lots of B-roll of running (although some of that is sweet). Would deffo be cool to hear a debrief of your 50k, what went well, what didnd't etc etc. all the best!
