When you’re meticulously tracking every running metric... except the one that actually matters for performance and injury prevention. 😬
Hands up if this is you! 🙋♂️ We get so caught up in pace, mileage, and all the fancy GPS watch data, that we completely overlook the #1 pillar of recovery: SLEEP.
As your physio-coach, I’ve seen countless runners pushing their limits with epic training plans, only to be constantly battling fatigue, tightness, and niggles because their foundations of sleep are non-existent.
Running hard on 5-6 hours a night isn’t building a bulletproof runner; it’s actively making you fragile and setting you up for injury. Your body heals, adapts, and builds resilience while you sleep. Neglect it, and you’re leaving performance on the table and opening the door to pain.
It’s time to make sleep your secret weapon.
