Bold take for a Friday: balance is a lie.
What you have is energy allocation. You choose what gets it this hour, this day, this season.
Mine right now is family and happiness. Everything else gets fed from there.
Thing I had to learn the hard way: don't race full gas in a training block.
Last weekend in Colorado — 50 miles, 4th. Wanted way more. Got the training I needed instead of a hole I'd have to dig out of.

We're in the middle of the biggest rebuild we've done at https://t.co/S5f0jQmV6Z. The coaching algorithm. The AI coach. Every interaction in between.
Training advice that feels like a coach who knows you — not a plan that ignores you.

Honestly, going into it my head wasn't fully in race mode. We're shipping a huge https://t.co/S5f0jQmV6Z update, our AI coach went down Friday afternoon for a couple of hours, and I'm a newly minted dad. Somehow still had a fantastic time out there.
Raced 50 miles in Colorado this past weekend. Got 4th. Wanted more, of course, but I'm deep in a training block right now — couldn't go full gas. The plan was to test fueling, heat, pacing, gear for Lavaredo. Everything I needed to figure out, I figured out.
