Thank you for sharing your thoughts about a runner’s burnout. The last weeks i realized that I also got into some burnout with not only stress and ambitious goals at work, but also training for my first two half marathons last year, stopped by a Covid-infection of that I did not yet recover fully.

Did you also have impact on stress level and HRV in 2018 and this year?

Other question: gravel or road bike?

In 2018 I didn't track my HRV, so I don't know. This year the HRV was normal, but as I said, I think I was maybe (!) approaching (!) a runner's burnout. I am very carful with these words, because I know how serious a true burnout can be.

Took the gravel! Too much luggage for my road bike. I am also planning to ride more offrode than on tarmac. Will miss my road bike though.
