Ever felt like you're running in place, no matter how many miles you log? I've been there, stuck at a maddening plateau, and it's a battle I'm sharing with you today. On this episode of "Brian's Run Pod," we don't just ruminate on the frustration of stagnant progress, we're tackling it head-on. I'll be discussing those sneaky culprits that can halt your progress—whether it's the overzealousness that leads to overtraining or a routine that's too comfortable and screams undertraining. And let's not forget the toll of mental stress; it's like running with a weighted vest you can't take off. But together, we'll explore recognizing these roadblocks and dismantling them piece by piece.

Then, we shift gears and map out the route to overcoming those pesky plateaus. Setting achievable goals can light the way, but I'll also talk about the energizing effect of running with friends and how a structured schedule is your secret weapon. We'll dissect the benefits of mixing up your running routine with hills, tempo runs, and intervals, and why strength training might just be the missing puzzle piece in your regimen. Remember, plateaus aren't dead ends—they're just a signal that it's time to refocus and revive your training. So lace up your shoes and let's break through those barriers together.
