#124: Flukes and blips - how much does one performance affect the next races?
About this episode
Can one 'good' running performance be a fluke?
Can one 'bad' running performance be the new norm?
In today's episode I explore the notion that we sometimes feel we have to prove that a breakthrough performance isn't just a fluke.
I also question if a race that didn't go as well as we hoped is a blip or the new reality.
The good news is that for most of us, we can keep raising the ceiling on our performances and whilst progress may not be linear, there is more cause for optimism than not.
This Thursday (19th June) I will have an interactive quiz on my instagram stories to give you insight on the number one thing to focus on for your next marathon block. Go to
