Runners debate recovery runs and recovery time
Original: Recovery run vs how long to recover from that run. # runnersOfMastodon # running
Runners are discussing the gap between prescribing an easy recovery run and how long the body actually needs to bounce back from a hard training session. The exchange highlights a common tension in running culture: training plans label a run as 'recovery', but fatigue, sleep and life stress can mean recovery takes far longer than a single easy outing.
Why now: It resonates with runners who feel training plans underestimate real recovery needs.
