When and How I Taper for a Race

Описание: We're back to the topic of tapering for a foot race. We run, we train, we WORK HARD, and then we race!! BUT, what if we arrive at the starting line tired, or undertrained? Or.... That is the balance in running and racing, you want to arrive at the starting line as fit as possible, while also being as fresh as possible. We must work hard in the training block so that we can bring down the volume at the right moment and begin to introduce the sharpening phase of the training. Adding speed late is how we get our legs ready to go fast, while still not over tapping the engines before arriving at the starting line. This art form within the sport of foot racing is what we now call Tapering, and it is a beautiful training tactic to master within your training. Let me know down in the comments if you have any specific questions about tapering, happy to help you master this last component of a training block.
