Training isn’t random—even if it sometimes feels like it when you’re in the middle of it.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how a training block actually builds over time so you can stop second-guessing every shift in your plan. From early intensity to later volume, from general fitness to race-specific prep, this is the big-picture view of what’s happening and why it matters—especially when life is full and you’re just trying to keep showing up.

I recorded this one in the middle of Cocodona prep, so you’ll also get a little behind-the-scenes of what that looks like right now…including a dining room that looks like trail running exploded all over it. 

In this episode, I talk about:

•  How training moves from least specific to most race-specific 
•  Why volume increases while intensity comes down over time 
•  What you’re actually building in each phase of a training block 
•  Why working on weaknesses early matters more than you think 
•  How to stop panicking when training starts to feel different 
•  What it really means to trust the process (without overthinking it) 

If you’ve ever wondered if you’re doing enough…too much…or the “right” kind of training—this one’s for you.
