Adding a watch and pace metric to a run can shift its worth from the experience itself to the metrics.Their words
Add a watch and pace metric and now you’re stuck comparing. The worth of the run stops being about the experience itself and more about the metrics.

more than 60 years ago, legendary coach Bill Bowerman coined the Hard-Easy principle, which essentially says after you do a hard workout you need one (or more) easy days to balance things out.

How hard? This should be easy. You should be able to have a conversation, with just the slightest hint of needing to catch air. If you can’t maintain a conversation, you’re going too hard; slow down.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
