Balance Training & Life

If you want to balance training and life…⁠
⁠
…make sure to keep your priorities in check.⁠
⁠
For Karel, this means: family first, work second, and training third.

"I won’t push my training to overrule all other things in life.⁠
⁠
I accept that maybe I won’t be training everything I theoretically “should” be training. Balance in life is more important to me than adding training load.⁠
⁠
I trained for the PCT on 9 hours a week and succeeded because my life was in balance and I could still do things with my family and work.⁠
⁠
If I had pushed more training hours, my life wouldn’t have been balanced, which would have reduced my chances of breaking the record.⁠"
