Congrats SLC Sole Team for a wonderful run in San Francisco this past weekend! Runners braved some intense hill work that took them from Crissy Field up to the Golden Gate Bridge!
Reminder: Cross Training is a good idea. Some cycling, some swimming, some weight training. These are all good ideas. However, I would caution folks to be careful. A crazy workout with heavy weights the day before a long distance 8 miler or more is not advisable (especially a heavy leg workout). You want to feel light and ready on Saturday mornings. Schedule your cross training as a complement accordingly. Also, no long runs on Fridays... Rest and Recovery time before and after long runs IS part of the training!!! Give your muscles time to rest and recover! The great thing about running is that you feel great and invincible... injuries can squelch that quickly. If you feel soreness after a run, good training also includes icing and attending to areas that need REST.
