Do you know your fitness level before starting a training block? If not you may be running your runs way too fast, that can result in fatigue and higher risk of overtraining or even injury. Before we start with a training block we should test or fitness to make sure we will be training according to our capabilities ... not what we hope to be able to run.
And during a longer training block an additional fitness test is welcome, so we can adjust our training according to the result from the test. Such a test race doesn't take much time, we can plan one every now and then. After the test be honest with yourself and adjust your training accordingly. Listening to this episode will give you more insight, why running at the right paces in training is important.
