  • Summary

  • "The Illusion of a Perfect Training Plan"

    Training for a 100-mile ultramarathon? Spoiler alert: nothing ever goes exactly as planned. In this episode of 9 to 100, I dive into the wild world of shifting—not just gears, but mindsets and expectations.

    Whether it’s surprise snowstorms, injuries, or life just being life (shoutout to that last-minute work meeting), flexibility is a skill, not a fallback. I’ll share real moments from my own training where plans got tossed out the window—and why that was actually the best thing that could’ve happened.

    We’ll talk about:

    • Why adaptability beats perfection in endurance training

    • How my coach helps me navigate shifting schedules and terrain

    • Dealing with weather, and whether you should push through or adapt to alternatives

    This episode is for anyone on the long-haul journey—who want to train smarter, stress less, and learn to roll with the punches (and maybe even enjoy 'em).

    So lace up, tune in, and let’s talk about how shifting your training might just be the key to crossing that 100-mile finish line.
