A breakthrough race is intoxicating. Running a big Personal Best is a clear sign that you're training well, thriving, and on the right track.

But what happens next?

What happens after you run a big PR and your season comes to an end? How do you keep the momentum going, while still respecting recovery and your need for down-time?

This episode is a repost of a conversation on the Elevate Your Running podcast with coach Sara Manderscheid. We talk about:

Recovery is a real phase of training. Learn how long to rest and why it's more than physical.
Race analysis and reflection: Discover how to learn from your recent race, identifying both successes and areas for improvement.
New Goals or No?: Explore diverse approaches to planning your next training cycle.
Smart base rebuilding: Find effective strategies for a gradual and consistent return to training.
Preventing burnout and staying motivated: Keep your passion for running strong, even during the off-season.

Thanks Boulderthon!

Boulderthon is a top 10 race in America according to USA Today and one of the best fall marathons according to Runner's World. With a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and marathon, Boulderthon offers an amazing fall destination race weekend right at the foothills of the Rockies. Use code STRENGTH20 for $20 off the marathon or half marathon.

Join me in Boulder, one of the top running destinations in the country, on September 28th, to experience the tight knit running community here, race on the epic streets of Boulder, and finish on historic Pearl Street. While I live in Denver, I travel to Boulder probably once a week to run. It's arguably one of the best running locations in the United States.

There'll probably be cool and crisp fall weather for racing fast, too. And don't worry, Boulderthon is a BQ-eligible, USA Track & Field Sanctioned Event.

Boulderthon is on track to sell out again this year so don't miss out. Use code STRENGTH20 to save $20 on the marathon or half-marathon here and I hope to see you in Boulder this fall.
