Active Recovery

For the remainder of the month of May all returning athletes are on active recovery; this includes the items below. 

1) Bike
2) Walk/hike
3) Body weight exercises 
4) Yoga
5) Jog/light runs

These items will move blood into muscles, helping them repair. An added bonus is that active recovery usually involves a different form of exercise, which can help your mind recover, as well.

Week 9

Seeing as the state has officially cancelled the season. Take this week off, give yourselves a mental and physical break, but still try to get outside even if it’s just to go for a walk or bike ride. If you choose to go for a run make it light. But again this is an off week, in the weeks to come I will post more information on us moving forward in regards to cross country and those who do preseason training during the fall.

We call this workout a build-up - where we gradually increase speed, going through ‘our gears’, from 1st, to 2nd, to 3rd, and up to whatever gear you have. Once you are at maximum speed, hold this for 20m, and then gradually slow down.
1) 8 x 8 house (driveway to driveway) runs
2) 6 street strides (intersection to intersection) for cool down
