2026 Winter Middle Distance Training (800m-5,000m), Monday, March 23, 2026, Week 2, Day 1, Monday is an easy day!

Workout for Monday, March 23, 2026

Your Monday workout: Warm-up, 45-55 minutes of easy to moderate running, cooldown. .

Hydration is a state of mind. Hydration is not about drinking lots of sugary drinks; it is about getting down water, 8-12 glasses of 8-12 oz a day, carrying a water bottle, and managing caffeine intake and carbonated sugar drinks, which are absolute crap for a real athlete. Also, stay away from the so-called sports energy drinks and do not combine them with alcohol. Why train your butt off and then mess it up by putting some junk in your mortal engine?

Think before you drink.
