by Larry EderToday is Sunday. It is day 7 of our week and your scheduled workout is a long run.
Long runs are key to your development as a runner.
I suggest running on trails, as I believe it is important to vary the terrain for physical and mental health, just like it is important to vary workouts and places where one works out. I try to change workouts each 21 days.
Enjoy your long run today, whether it was in snow, rain, or, sunny weather!
