Noun

Dynamic Pacing is the real-time adjustment of speed or effort in response to changing conditions or feedback during an activity or process.

Dynamic pacing involves adjusting your running speed based on real-time feedback, such as terrain, weather, or fatigue levels. It helps optimize energy use and maintain performance throughout a race or training session. For example, slowing down on uphill sections and speeding up on downhills can conserve energy. This strategy is crucial for long-distance runners to prevent burnout and improve race times. By listening to their bodies and external conditions, runners can make smarter decisions, enhancing overall efficiency and endurance. Dynamic pacing is particularly beneficial in unpredictable race environments.
