Setbacks & Uncertainty in Running, White Dot Crown, FKTs - Ep.31

Episode Description from the Publisher

This week’s episode is an unplanned deep dive into setbacks and the uncertainty of training & running goals. I was gearing up for an FKT attempt, but an untimely ankle roll on my bad ankle that just got good, changed my plans and gave me some flashbacks of my long recovery this fall/winter. Luckily, it wasn’t bad at all and should be fine in the near future. I still wanted to get an effort in so I decided to give an uphill only push to limit the impact on the ankle. I landed on a time trial up North Uncanoonuc and tied for the overall crown on a stacked leaderboard. I gave some thoughts and take aways on the effort. I also threw in some last minute thoughts on the latest season of Love on the Spectrum (with a couple more follow up points to come), plus race previews and recaps from the New England ultra scene.Give it a listen.YOUTUBEhttps://www.youtube.com/@runmountainpeaksTRAINING & NUTRITION INFOhttps://substack.com/@runmountainpeaksFREE ENDURANCE TRAINING GUIDEhttps://www.runmountainpeaks.com/run-coachingFOLLOWInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/runmountainpeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61588592565447TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@runmountainpeaksThreads: https://www.threads.com/@runmountainpeaks?hl=enX: https://x.com/runmtnpeaks#TrailRunning #Mountains #WhiteMountainNationalForest
