In this episode, Lindsey shares a carefully considered Comrades announcement, one that sets the tone for the training journey ahead.

From there, we dive into one of the most overlooked pillars of endurance performance: recovery. What it really means, why it’s essential, and why no amount of hard training can make up for poor recovery.

We cover:
- Why you only benefit from the training you recover from
- How fatigue, injury, and illness creep in when recovery is ignored
- The role of sleep and nutrition in getting fitter, stronger, and more resilient
- How to structure your week to absorb training rather than break down

If you’re training for Comrades, this episode will change how you think about your training and help you arrive on race day healthier and better prepared.
