Season 1 Episode 63 of Running to the Castle Podcast w/ Dr. Ali Marty

In this episode of Running to the Castle I’m answering a question a runner emailed me: They missed their long run, what should they do to make it up?

Some options when you miss a long run

• Skip it and move on

• Start a week behind and skip the next planned cut back week 

Some questions to ask yourself:

• Have I recently ran beyond this long distance?

• Am I starting from 0 miles lately?

• Do I have vacation or busy weeks coming up?

Questions I answer in this episode;

• Can you make up that long run later in the week?

• Can you tack on the extra miles onto another run?

• What do you do about the long run when you’re on vacation?
