172. Off-Season Training: What to do In-Between Seasons

172. Off-Season Training: What to do In-Between Seasons

This episode is all about the off-season. The "in between" time between seasons of running. You'll learn how to best structure this time based on your goals, weaknesses, and ability.

This episode was the suggestion from a listener. He asked if I could talk about what runners should do after they run a marathon but before they start their next big training block. Now, whether you're training for a marathon or any distance race, this is a great question.

A good example is what to do after the Boston Marathon but before you start training for the NYC marathon. If you train for 16 weeks for New York, that puts the beginning of your training in late July. Assuming you take a full two weeks off from running after Boston, you're left with 11 weeks. What do you do with that time period?
