327. Spring Race Prep: What To Do (and NOT Do) Right Now

If your spring race is coming up in the next 4–6 weeks, this is where everything changes. You’re not building fitness anymore. You’re not trying to “get in shape.” At this point, the hay is in the barn. What you do now is either going to sharpen you up for race day…or completely sabotage all the work you’ve already done. And here’s the problem: most runners get this part wrong. They start cramming in extra miles, pushing harder, second-guessing everything, or trying new things at the worst possible time. So today, I’m breaking down exactly what to do—and what NOT to do—so you can show up on race day feeling strong, lean, confident, and ready. This is Spring Race Prep: What To Do (and NOT Do) Right Now. Become a Leaner, Stronger Runner If you’re putting in the miles but not getting the results you want… something is off. Maybe you’re running a lot but the weight isn’t changing. Maybe you feel tired all the time. Maybe running actually feels harder than it should.
