Are You Focusing on the Wrong Metrics?

Welcome to our coach chat this week and our first podcast of the new year.

As we all try to get our 2023 started off on the right track, one of the first things we start to think about is tracking towards our goals.

As any good coach will tell you, one of the most critical pieces to achieving any goal you set for yourself is tracking your progress along the way.

Unfortunately, many runners are not aware that they are often too concerned with the wrong metrics in their training. The result is often frustration, stagnant race results, and injuries.

So, today we're going to go over a couple of common metrics many runners put too much focus on and how you can shift your mindset should you fall victim to these familiar pitfalls.
