Hey, hey, my runner friend. I'm doing a little self-care and taking the week off from podcasting. So please enjoy this episode from last year! Your breathing is a direct indicator of your effort level. When your breathing feels controlled and relaxed, it means your effort level is right in the sweet spot. And when it feels like you can't catch your breath, you are probably working above your ability in the moment. But there are lots of factors that can affect your breathing and the level of effort that you're putting out. Let's dive in!
