This is your workout for Tuesday, December 20, 2022.
This is week two of three weeks of recovery and day two of the week.
At RunBlogRun, we build three weeks of recovery into the end of each season. I learned this from following the late Ron Daws, a 1968 Olympian, in his book, The Self-Made Olympian. Daws was a follower of the great Arthur Lydiard, who build periods of mileage, hills, track work, and racing to bring an athlete to the height of racing fitness.
Your workout today is a good warm-up, and a thirty to fifty-minute run on the trails, with a cool-down.

His first article, on Don Bowden, America's first sub-4 minute miler, was published in RW in 1983.

He currently manages the content and marketing development of the RunningNetwork, The Shoe Addicts, and RunBlogRun. Of RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: "I have to admit, I love traveling to far away meets, writing about the sport I love, and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most of anything I have ever done, except, maybe running itself." Also does some updates for BBC Sports at key events, which he truly enjoys.
Theme song: Greg Allman, " I'm no Angel."
