You start the race feeling strong. The climbs feel easy. You think, I’ve trained for this. Then, somewhere after halfway, the rhythm starts to slip. Your legs still move, but your pace drifts. Focus fades. Fueling becomes a chore. The mind goes quiet, and not in a good way.

I’ve been there. Every trail runner has. The truth is, late-race collapse isn’t just about fitness, it’s about pacing precision, fueling rhythm, and mental stability under stress. Once I learned to tie all three together, the fade stopped. That’s exactly what this system teaches you to do.
