Stop Overthinking Your Training: How to Simplify and Run Better


Listen Later

Want to train smarter, run stronger, and stop second-guessing your training? This episode dives into one of the biggest pitfalls we see as coaches: overthinking. From obsessing over pace and metrics to chasing “perfect” plans, Zoë and TJ break down how overthinking sabotages performance, and how to get back to feeling good, recovering well, and actually getting faster.

🎙️ In this episode:

  • The “Overthinking Hall of Fame”: Pace Police, Data Collectors, and Plan Perfectionists

  • Why more data doesn’t mean better training

  • How to use RPE and interoception to build true awareness

  • The science of simplicity and the power of the minimum effective dose

  • Reframing your mindset from proving to improving
