Week 5: Recovery is Training (It Took Me 13 Marathons to Learn This)

It's week 5 of marathon training! And the biggest lesson I've learned over 14 marathons? Recovery isn't the absence of training. Recovery IS training. For years, I thought: Rest days = lazy Easy runs = pointless Constant exhaustion = training hard I was wrong. Training is the stimulus. Recovery is where adaptation happens. You don't get stronger during mile repeats — you get stronger when your body repairs afterward. At 48, I can't just grind anymore. If I train hard without recovering well, I don't improve — I just dig a hole.
