How long should you really take to recover after an ultra, and how soon is too soon to race again?

After TGC, we share our own recovery process and why jumping back into racing too quickly can hold you back. We talk through what’s happening in the body post-race, why “training races” aren’t really a thing at longer distances, and how recovery ultimately shapes your entire season. Because at the end of the day, you only benefit from the training you recover from.
