I'm a dumb noob, but a few ideas have crystallized recently:
- it's easier to lose time than to make up time, so make up time when you can
- 90% is resting, with very little physiological cost (over this kind of duration, at least)
- "rest" downhill - it's free money that adds up (see points 1 & 2)
