60 year old Ultra and Marathon runner here. Not fast but persistent. I train for both disciplines concurrently and I stay injury free by speeding up in marathon training and lots of slow hills and trails for Ultra. Faster and stronger than ever!
Thank you!
Great info much appreciated
Just did a 21 miler on Sunday with a heavy Descent. Twisted my ankle, but it was no big deal. I'm 3 weeks out of a hundred miler. I was told no more big runs🤯. To keep it under 15 miles from now on. I've always done a 10 day taper before a big event. I got the idea from Tim Tollefsen while listening to him on a podcast. It's worked for me ever since. 3 weeks of bringing down the volume is messing with my head. What's your take on recovery from training for a big race. #taper tantrums
Similar boat, 4 weeks out from 1/2 marathon, pushing the running higher has caused 2 calf cramps...taper is just around the corner! It feels bad when you can't push for a week or two and maybe lose a bit of fitness and miss your PB
10 day taper seems a bit short while a 3 week taper seems a bit long! I'm in favor of a 2 week taper with your last long run being at least 14 days out from the race. Just make sure that that last long run isn't something wild like a 50k. ~20 miles sounds fine to me.
@JasonFitzgerald Thank you for the feed back. Looks like I'll be running a 18 miler this weekend. Appreciate it.
Our early summer here in Florida has been brutal. If I have 15 miles scheduled on a day in the 90's, it takes longer to recover, no matter how well I fuel my run. But, if i run 9 miles AM and 6 miles PM, I recover faster. I know the jury is still out on split long runs, but it works well for me. I'll probably do this for runs longer than 12 miles until the end of September.
This is a good approach if you're dealing with crazy weather. It's such a high stress that mitigating it by breaking up the run is smart. Of course, a long run is valuable partly because it's one long session, so it's not the best long-term approach. But if used just for the FL summer, I think it's smart!
How funny. I naturally crave a cup of coffee after a long hike or run. Coffee and potato chips.
Stimulants, carbs, and salt. Makes sense to me!
