Today's note · 09:14
You came off Sunday's 21k smarter than you felt — fatigue is up to 71 but fitness ticked from 53 → 55, so you're absorbing the work. You're 26 weeks out from Amsterdam: this is exactly when fatigue should outrun fitness. Plan two more aerobic days this week, one quality session Saturday, and let your form drift back toward −10 before we touch intensity again.
Phase: Base build Compares: planned vs actual
Current fitness state
Think of this as your "engine size." The bigger the number, the more training your body can handle. Your peak this year was 95 — you're rebuilding toward that.
Your CTL of 55 tells me you're carrying a steady build. CTL is the cumulative training load from the last 42 days — what your body is adapted to. Up means you're building durability; down means losing the engine. Right now you're in a healthy build.
Fitness
55
Building well
hover to understand
How tired your body is from the last 7 days of training. Currently higher than your fitness — which is normal when you're in a training block.
ATL 71 is what's accumulated in your legs over the last 7 days. The higher it climbs, the closer you are to needing a recovery day. When ATL spikes above CTL, that's where injury risk creeps in. You're at real cost — legs are loaded.
Fatigue

Fitness minus fatigue. Negative means you're building — this is correct 26 weeks out from Amsterdam. You want this near 0 to +5 on race day.
Form −16 = Fitness minus Fatigue. Negative means you're loaded and probably tired — normal mid-block. Positive means you're sharp; that's where race-day belongs. The sweet spot for hard workouts is roughly −10 to −25. You're in the building zone.

What does −16 actually mean for you?
Form is fitness minus fatigue. Negative isn't bad — it's the cost of getting fitter. The chart below shows where −16 sits and what comes next.
−16
Where you are now
Training cost is showing up. Legs feel a little heavy mid-week — that's the correct signal in a base block.
~−5
Where a recovery week takes you
Cut volume 30% for 7 days, fatigue drops fast, fitness barely moves. Plan one every 3rd or 4th week.
+5 to +10
Where race day should land
A 3-week taper into Amsterdam is what gets you here. Too far above +15 and you've lost the work — that's why we don't taper longer.
-60 Burned out -40 Too much -16 ← You 0 Fresh +20 Race ready
You hit -65 in late January during your biggest training week. That's overreaching territory — don't stay here long.

This is where you build fitness. You're here now at -16. Hard training, accumulating load. Normal to feel tired.

Currently here. You're in a building block — fitness is growing. Fatigue (71) is higher than fitness (55), which is expected.

Fitness (builds slowly)
Fatigue (spikes after hard weeks)
Form (fitness minus fatigue)
Your biggest training week of the year — 767 TSS. Fatigue spiked to 127. Fitness jumped fast. This is when you were really loading up before your half marathon PR.
Jan 25 — Big week
Highest load of the year. Fitness jumped fast.

CTL hit 95.7 — your personal peak. Then 3 consecutive weeks of near-zero training. Likely illness or an enforced rest. Fitness dropped from 95 to 43 in just 3 weeks.
Mar 8 — Peak fitness
Your fittest point. Then a sudden 3-week stop.
hover for detail
Fitness back at 55 and climbing again. You're in a proper training block with 26 weeks to go. This is the ideal moment to start structured marathon prep.
Now — Back on track
Building again. Right trajectory for Amsterdam.

What to watch for: if your resting HR is 5+ beats higher than your normal 49–50, that's your body telling you to take it easy that day — even if you feel fine.
