It's better to be undertrained than 1% over trained. Today, we talk about how fatigue and stress mask fitness and why it's often more important to get your mind and emotions straight. We get into the freedom of training "light" and why adding more isn't the answer. Are you chasing all the time, or trailing with poise? 

• The baggage we carry
• Stress is Stress
• What’s a Day Off to you?
• Fatigue Masks Fitness
• Stress to soak in 
• It’s hard to be objective - 9 Hours in the car shelled me - looking from the outside I have a lot of shit going on - I need to ask for help 
• Go run with someone else
• Take time to connect with people
• Good stress is stress too
• Minimal effective dose 
• When we think more is more is more
• Addictive personality - being “fine” with feeling “fine” - getting used to feeling Juiced . . .
• Burn your matches on Race Day
• When your mind blows before your body
• “I didn’t have it today” - athletes say that on 1 hour runs
• The mental and emotional weighs you down
• It’s better to be undertrained than 1% overtrained
• What are we chasing?
• Just because someone’s doing it doesn’t mean it’s right 
• More isn’t always better
• Are you an over-achiever or over-doer
• Chase under control
• Does mood follow action or action follow mood?
• Mike’s dog can sense she’s moving  . . .
• They need some Muncie Volunteers, especially the day before the race in the Athlete Registration (Athlete Check in). So if you’re racing or have family going, they’d love your help and it’s a great way to help this race get things going in the right direction for our season!
