How to Optimally Plan Your Tune-up Races


Listen Later

There are several strategies for scheduling and executing tune up races and when done right, they can enhance your fitness and boost your confidence for the big day.  

But, if they’re not done right, they can add extra risk, like not recovering enough, and unnecessary stress to your schedule.  

On today’s show, I’m going to talk all about tune up races. You’ll learn:

  • when to add a tune up race for maximum benefit and minimum risk
  • how to run your tune up race to best prepare you for your goal race, and
  • alternative ways to use tune ups in your schedule

If you’re gearing up for a spring race and looking to add tune-up races to your schedule (or already have and might be worried it’s too close or too much), this is a must-listen!
