How to Recover From a Hard Race

As a rule of thumb I have that first week always being super easy if it's a really long race there be zero running potentially for about two or maybe even three weeks depending on the individual. The most important thing in something David just actually touched on there was the want the mental recovery as well not just the physical. People are trying to get the maximum performance they can in their races if they race too frequently or they don't give themselves a chance to actually decompress afterwards.
