    Good insights, Heather. I do love a maintenance week where you just get to chill on all activities.

    Absolutely! I still like to have some structure, but no pressure, no pace, just moving! 🤓

    You're doing better than I did! My last 33K trail race BROKE me. I'm only now getting back into running regularly, and the race was in April!

    Congrats on getting back into it! To be fair, I’ve been trying to stay in half marathon shape for a while so I can drop one into my calendar as they come up. I do have an 11 mile trail run coming up in August that breaks me every year though! 🤓

    @@RunningGeekGirl Same, generally. I ran two road half marathons and four trail half marathons (and beyond, 24K, 26K, etc.) in the past year. Maybe I shouldn't have worn plated trail shoes? I'm not sure. But either way, I'm recovering from plantar fasciitis now that took me out of commission for a while. It was probably longer than it would have been had I not spent the first month just waiting for it to go away on its own. 😂

    What I do is to take complete rest. For how long it would depend on the length of the race I just finished.

    That’s usually what I’ll do for marathon or longer for a few days. Then I’ll do a few days of walking before I start adding in run segments. 🤓
