June 19, 2024 - The Base Run...Hell ya!

Good morning! After a day of "rest" yesterday, meaning no run, today is a Base Run day. What is a base run? It is a medium to long distance run at an easy(er) pace. The purpose and benefit of a base run is to increase edurance and aerobic ability. It also increases 'time on feet' and distance without adding strain or fatigue. It is a run done now that benefits you later...increasing aerobic ability and endurance for a planned race in the future.

What are "Base" activities we can do now that do not require a ton of effort or fatigue, but that will move us forward in the "long run" (pun intended)? ;) For me, tasks like laundry, making the bed (which I tend to skip a lot of the time), running errands...another pun, not intended. Mostly "to-do" items. Get those done and feel good about it!! Until next time...
