Agreed on easy running and the Endorphin Elite, lol at ChatGPT training plans, disagree on SunGod - they look good but I found the performance lacking, and, after having a gap myself due to Covid before NYC, 4.25% slower was very close to what I experienced.
Thanks for sharing this Ashley! It's something I've been actively working on now through the build phase of my training. My coach, Eric Orton, is one of the advocates of coaching runners to slow down and focus on form and cadence. I cringe at my mile splits sometimes and get into a case of comparisonitis, but then I recognize that I've improved form and haven't had the injuries that I previously had.
Also on ChatGPT... INSANE. What is happening to the world.
This is so well written. Explaining something as complex as this isn't an easy thing. Thanks for making it fun with science to back it up! Looking forward to reading more.

my easy pace is about 2.5 minutes per mile slower than goal marathon pace
as it should be!!
