Subject: RE: Adding another run...how long? Originally posted by glayher
Thanks to everyone for the great advise. I was intimidated by adding another day but if I can spread the mileage out it seems much less scary. I will try this and see how it works out.
I currently run a medium run on Tuesday, a short Thursday and with Saturday being the long run. The other days are bike (3x) and swim (2x). I don't get all of these in every week but I try hard to do at least one per day with Sunday off.
Don't be scared- running is fun. Just keep it nice and relaxed.
I think most of us could run way more than we do simply by keeping most of the running at a relaxed pace. We get caught up on running fast sometimes (and monitoring pace and distance ), but consistency is really the most important thing. |
