Weekly Proof of Work #1 Three weeks ago, I was asking myself different questions. Can I handle volume again? Will my legs recover? Is my aerobic base still there? This week, those questions are gone. And new ones took place: How do I optimize hydration? How do I refine VO2 execution? How does cardiac drift change across environments? Shiiii changed! And that shift right there is the biggest win of the week… Not a number. A mindset. Man, I’m no longer getting back into shape. I’m training. 📈 The proof: - Aerobic fitness: lower HR on the treadmill, easier recovery, threshold sessions executed consistently. - VO2 max: I dominated the 1K session under a red heat warning and finished stronger than I started. - Running economy: mid-long run I wasn’t even thinking about the pace anymore and y’all know when pace is flowing, economy is improving. - Durability: 48 miles. Two long runs. One easy run. Two speed days. Zero missed sessions. Zero soreness. No exhaustion. 🥇 Favorite moment ...
