Another example of overtraining was I remember a girl (interestingly enough that these are all girls willing to push this hard) who was a professional ultra-marathoner being interviewed on the Joe Rogan podcast. And if I recall she was casually mentioning how she was used to going partially blind during the last 20% or so of a 60ish mile race. I think she was mentioning that small blood vessels in her eyes would start to blow at that point. But she would just keep on going even only able to see shadows in front of her of where the road is
