๐Ÿ”— Jonathan English makes a useful distinction in Engineering Problems and Phone Call Problems

\n

There is a distinction that the infrastructure planning world doesnโ€™t tend to make explicitly, but that explains an enormous amount of why large projects cost what they cost. Itโ€™s the distinction between engineering problems and what I like to call โ€œphone call problems.โ€

\n
\n

Phone call problems lead to increased costs, schedule delay, and significant uncertainty.

๐Ÿ”— The morning shakeout by Mario Fraioli

\n
\n

As a coach, I use various tools and data to track trends over time and initiate deeper discussions with my athletes about where weโ€™re heading and why. But thereโ€™s a big difference between a tool and a crutch. Data should be used to inform your decisions but outsourcing your decisions to a data point is a foolโ€™s errand. I worry that in our rush to optimize every aspect of our training and racing that weโ€™re losing touch with the parts of this pursuit that canโ€™t be measured and why most of us started running in the first place.
