W14/D1- Rest and Self Care Day

5.0|45 min|15 comments
Well done on completing 13 weeks of training; today is about taking care of YOU. At some point today, go for a walk/hike to relax your mind and shake out your legs. This is not a workout, but 20-60 minutes of movement might feel nice; full rest is also a choice too. Spend 15-20 minutes looking through the race website; and make sure you understand all the rules/regulations about the race; crewing; aid stations; parking; cut-off times. Also take a few minutes to look over the course map and elevation profile. If there are any videos or race recap blogs, check those out too. Gear and Nutrition Check- If you plan to order any gear or nutrition online, this would be a great week to do that so it gets to you on time. Being confident in your gear and nutrition choices is important so be thoughtful about what you'll be using and what's worked for you in training. Resist the urge to get caught up in what other people are doing; make sure it works for you first. PT/Sports Massage- If you're able to check-in with your PT or get a sports massage sometime this week or next week, this would be a good timeframe. Take care of anything else that will make this week go smoother: shop for food; run errands; finalize meetups/events, etc.
