Endurance sport is mental training.
You are alone in your head for long periods of time with ever increasing levels of discomfort. You have a concrete goal that half your mind is screaming to abandon.
You repeat this day after day and have no option but to figure it out.

We have to confront our limits.
We have to be able to find out that we aren’t as good as we thought. We have to accept the hit on our ego.
Only when we drop our ego & allow ourselves to explore our limits, do we find out what we are truly capable of.

Lactate, the lactate shuttle, and lactate threshold workouts in polarized training
Most athletes poorly understand a small molecule known as lactate. Lactate is a fuel source for our cells, and we can train to use lactate more efficiently. The brain prefers lactate as fuel.
