Individuality and the Experiment of One

"Everyone is different." This statement has implications for running, as each person may differ in their response to training, diet or other factors. The advice I give in this wiki, as well as much of the other advice, is somewhat generic and assumes that people are similar. However, you are an experiment of one, a unique individual and All models are wrong. It means that you may need to train, eat, sleep, race differently to others. What does this mean to you? Be prepared to experiment and to go against established advice.
