About this episode
Sarah has an in-depth conversation with her favorite coaching duo, Liz Waterstraat and Jen Harrison, focusing on perhaps the most oft-overlooked element of running: recovery. The coaches cover:
-the three main components of recovery (including that it even starts pre-run!);
-what qualifies as a rest day;
-pointers for foam rolling;
-sleep hygiene and its roll in successful workouts; plus,
-the mental side of recovery.
In the intro, Liz details her recent, forged-from-adversity sprint triathlon race; Coach Jen jumps on at 15:39.
