#dailymission - How many rest days do you take during the week?
One or two, depending on how I feel. I'm an old fart :-)2 people liked what Michael said -
#dailymission - How many rest days in a week? 3 to 4, but, it depends on the week... and I'm likely going to shorten that up as I transition to more riding than running for the summer.

#dailymission I take one full day of rest, no exercise whatsoever. It's necessary for me to prevent injury.

Great to see your plan, I wonder what people do. Great to see easy 13, my old plan said east 6 but I wouldn't get enough in per week that way, with the new goal of 80 per week for Mara training.

#dailymission That;s a funny one DM. If you take a peek at my training, I am on a runstreak since the year began. No off days there. Easy days are restful though. Does that count?

#dailymission How many rest days do you take during the week?- From totally working out, 1 to 2. I work out and teach Mon-Fri and try to get a hike or walk in on the weekend.

I don't like to take more than 1 a week.....even then sometimes I feel like I am cheating myself....which I know is silly but I just know that my moods are better when I get out and do something. I try to use walking as a rest day activity because then I am happy that I have done something but still allowing reasonable recovery :)

I totally agree. Sometimes my body is tired but I KNOW I feel better after I workout. I guess the key is to not push it harder than you know your body is able, and trying to get rest in while doing something mild.
