In this week’s episode, we start with a quick reflection on strength for sport and for everyday life, including Katie’s insights on how new parenthood has turned daily routines into real-world strength training. We then do a deep dive on common marathon race-week questions: from sleep and fueling to pacing strategies and how to think about heart rate and pacing in the moment. Finally, we discuss research showing that consistent easy mileage is one of the strongest predictors of marathon success, why Zone 1 training is often where the biggest gains happen, and how shifting from “I have to do this” to “I get to do this” can change your mindset for both racing and life.
