I’m taking a break, but I haven’t stopped running trails. For now, I’m going for the short runs (short being less than 10 miles). No big adventures planned for the immediate future. The past couple months I had been contemplating a 50k for December. That’s off the table now. November, I’m chillin’ and having some fun on the run. December, I’ll kick it up a notch for Calico in January. For now, I have some re-evaluating and resting up to do.
IMHO, very smart move. Strength and conditioning is not gained through exercise, but through recovery. And sometimes the recovery is a mind thing...
ReplyDeleteThanks Glenn. Recovery is for sure a mind thing. I've also heard and read again and again that strength is gained through recovery. Thanks for the advice. I'm going to try and take it.
