by Larry EderThe building of mileage over the summer is not a science, but a bit of art. Finding your right mixture of long runs, hill runs and easy runs take some time. Make sure you get sleep (8-10 hours), hydrate (water, non carbonated drinks, no sugar free drinks), eat well (veggies, legumes, protein source -fish, lean meat, fruit), stretch.
