Calling Audibles in our Running - Summary - Seth James DeMoor

Intro: This is a quick summary of Calling Audibles in our Running from Seth James DeMoor. It’s a great watch — we’re breaking it down so you can try the workout today. Be sure to check out the full video for all the details.

Key Points:

  • Audible mindset: Treat unexpected changes (weather, injury, or terrain) as an “audible” – a cue to stay flexible and adjust your plan on the fly.
  • Weather check: In Colorado, any storm rolling in before 11 am usually means bad mountain conditions. When lightning is present, stay below treeline or head back.
  • Adapt the workout: Switch the planned run to a shorter, safer distance when needed. The goal is still to get mileage in safely.
  • Practical tip: Always have a backup plan and be ready to modify distance, elevation, or location based on real‑time conditions.

Workout Example:

  • Planned: 8‑mile (≈13 km) trail run at Deer Creek with ~500 m (1,800 ft) total vertical gain.
  • Actual (audible adjustment): Ran ~7.75 miles (≈12.5 km) before lightning forced an early stop.
  • How to use: If you encounter bad weather, cut the distance to stay safe, then resume the full distance another day when conditions improve.

Closing Note: Give the “audible” mindset a try on your next run—adjust the distance, pace, or route to stay safe and keep training. You can easily customise the workout for your own paces in the Pacing app. Happy running!
