Are you fit enough to run your Comrades goal… or are you about to sabotage it? 

In this episode, we look at the dangerous “I’m feeling amazing” phase of Comrades training... when runners are at their fittest, but also most likely to overdo it. 
We cover how to recover properly after your biggest long run, why silver runners need to hold back on their final 50km, how to set a realistic race-day goal, and why your watch might be lying to you when it comes to pacing on Comrades day.
