Recover after 2000 mike run
Learn how I recovered after a 2000 mile run πββοΈ in the Appalachian Mountains β°οΈ
π 1. Firstly, the most important I listened to my body and did not follow any preplanned schedule to get back into training.
πββοΈ 2. The first activity I did was swimming, this allowed my body to move freely without any impact.
π§ββοΈ 3. The second activity I introduced was Yoga. Stretching my muscles allowed me to achieve full range of movement again.
π 4. Plenty of eating. Even though I typically ate about 6-7000 cal per day on the Appalachian Trail, my body fat still came down to less than 4%. So I ate what I wanted when I wanted.
ποΈββοΈ 5. Regular strength training going through a full range of motion with light weight and high reps.
π₯Ύ 6. Hiking slowly through the mountains taking my time to appreciate my surroundings.
πββοΈ 7. Initially 3 x 1 mile runs followed by 30 minutes then 40 minutes. Using a very easy pace on a running track.
Thatβs pretty much it. I now feel recovered after the Appalachian Trail. Iβve entered a @utmbworldseries 50k π₯ event in Chiang Mai also the Thailand North Face 100k π₯ . Iβm excited to begin ramping up my training and rediscovering my fitness.
