Off-Season Training
I define off-season training as the time between race specific training and it encompassing these scenarios.
Between racing seasons.
Usually track and cross-country if you’re a high school or college runner. This could also be for those runners who take the winter or summers off from race preparation.
Between marathons.
If you’re over 12-16 weeks away from your next marathon you probably need a break from marathon specific training.
Taking a break between races because you have life things to take care of and want to be ready when the time comes.
During the off-season we focus on:
🗸 building a mileage base
🗸 time management to build a routine
🗸 addressing weaknesses
🗸 developing new habits
🗸 goal setting to keep on the right path
