Building Consistency

‘Consistency is key’ or ‘consistency is king’ is often the phrase people use when answering what the most important principle of good running training is. But there are lots of misconceptions about the idea and how to build it into your training so I wanted to share a few thoughts on what consistency is and what it isn't.

Consistency is very unsexy. It’s not about smashing every run; it's more about building a slow and steady aggregate improvement over time.
