I don't take rest days in training, and I think that as long as you take your easy days truly easy, you will be fine. Some people cross train on their rest days, but introducing a new activity that your body isn't used to, in my opinion, creates more of a strain. Also, regarding the fuel, using Generation UCAN is an option to train without overloading your body with carbs, but getting enough to avoid bonking. I'm really excited to see (literally) what you do in Houston!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265175590096078175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-18572329800454925522017-11-21T12:04:47.222-06:002017-11-21T12:04:47.222-06:00Your training is so impressive, and what a great o...Your training is so impressive, and what a great opportunity to have such a strong group to help push and encourage you!Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-9337239852758057372017-11-21T06:55:26.303-06:002017-11-21T06:55:26.303-06:00You are definitely getting into great shape - I...You are definitely getting into great shape - I'm with your coach that I think closer to 3 is totally possible for you! That's a really solid long run workout. Also, I 100% agree about getting rid of rest days - this last cycle was the first time I ever ran 7 days/week and I thought the endurance difference was huge!Audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00701483453296295755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-27502442347433826622017-11-20T09:57:36.173-06:002017-11-20T09:57:36.173-06:00Dang you are working hard!

I really wanted to try stopping taking so many rest days (granted most of my "rest days" are yoga days so I'm still doing something, but I was running 6x a week). Then I ended up hurt this week, bleh. It's so neat that you have a group to train with for Houston and that you're all pushing each other to be your best. You're going to rock it out too, 8 more weeks!Amy Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17197087030892201936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-8678389281223413122017-11-19T15:52:20.367-06:002017-11-19T15:52:20.367-06:00You're going to rock Houston!You're going to rock Houston!Carinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079263542797994315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457833116563861494.post-6644328898738110302017-11-19T14:38:11.987-06:002017-11-19T14:38:11.987-06:00Whew, what a workout!
