About this episode
One of my fatal flaws is that when I'm considering a race, I tend to evaluate whether other not I can do it based on my fitness right then in that moment. I think: "Could I do this race right now?" 99% of the time, the answer is NO (obviously!) because I'm usually picking races when it's my off season or when I'm taking a break so while I might be fit, I'm certainly not race ready! I'm asking myself the wrong question when trying to decide if I should do a race or not. So today I want to share some better questions that you can use to help keep you from following suit and adopting my fatal flaw! Here they are: Do I have enough lead time (to train)? Does it challenge me in a new, different, or exciting way? Is it a stretch or a strain? What aspect of my training will I need to focus on in order to feel more confident in my ability to complete this race? Listen in as I walk through each of these questions and share some additional insights💡 ⭐️ GET THE FREE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT 🛍️ SHOP THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS STORE ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM
