Put the Kettle On, Not Your Trainers - Take a Rest Day #206

This week we’re talking about rest days & why they matter, why they’re so hard to take, and why your body (and your future self) will be grateful when you finally ease off the gas. There’s big news in the running world too. London Marathon are considering a Saturday and Sunday marathon. We share our thoughts… is this fun times or sad times? Brew with the Coaches is back. If you’re diving into the bushes every time you head out for a run, you’re not alone. It’s a common problem, and our coaches tackle the sensitive subject with plenty of care, and hopefully some helpful advice. Both Eddie and Gary had huge days out in the Lakes this week. They, along with the Northern Traverse runners, got absolutely battered by the weather. The DOMS are very, very real. And as always, you lot have been busy. Our STRAVA club continues to be the daily dose of inspiration we all need.
