1.
Coach Steve's Tip of the Week
Use each Saturday's workout as an experiment towards your
target distance, whether it's a 10K, half marathon or full
marathon. Each Saturday, experiment with nutrition,
hydration, what apparel to wear, pace and other strategic
components of your training program. As you move into the
season, into the 4th, 5th and 6th week, you'll have an idea
that water, carbohydrates and pacing play a big role in the
success of your workout. Following the workout, fuel your
recovery with 200-300 calories of fruit and protein (80%
carbs, 20% protein) within 30 minutes of completion.
Following your Saturday workout, gage how you feel. If you
are tired and exhausted, use this feedback to approach next
Saturday with better nutrition, hydration and pacing,
and purposefully complete each Saturday workout feeling good
after having fun... with extra gas in the tank that causes
you to think you could have gone even farther!
