March 20th – Today’s session is a recovery run. A recovery run is used to aid your body in reducing the lactic acid in your legs after a tough session or a long run. As this is Monday, it’s a good idea to do just that. The pace of a recovery run is somewhere between an easy run and a steady run. Pace isn’t overly important and you aren’t trying to go very long. Anywhere between 2 and 6 miles is plenty.
COACHING TIP: The recovery run is another good run to do in company. If you ran in a group on your Sunday long run, try to get this same group out again for this one. You will all have the same goal.
