W13/D7- Easy Run on Tired Legs + Stretching

5.0|45 min|27 comments
Today's easy run might feel a bit labored, but this is great practice for your mind and body going into race day. The 50k distance will at some point feel tiring and your body might want to stop, but in training when we can introduce those feelings to our mind, we learn how to work through them. The purpose of today is to run on tired legs but to also continue fueling well throughout the day. Your effort/intensity level is 5/10 so at no time should you feel like you're pushing hard through this run; the goal is stay efficient and run relaxed; and keep a positive mind. Road, trail, or treadmill is good for today's run; however, trail is preferable. Use the first 10 minutes as your warm-up and do dynamic stretches as needed. Beginner- 70-80 minutes + Stretching after your run. Intermediate- 80-90 minutes+ Stretching Advanced- 90 minutes + Stretching
