In this episode of Running to the Castle, Dr. Ali addresses a common listener question regarding how to manage training and mileage during the "off-season" or the gaps between major race weekends.

She emphasizes the importance of the "build phase" to maintain a base level of fitness... specifically recommending that runners never drop below a 5K distance to avoid starting from zero when a new training block begins.

By focusing on keeping running enjoyable and incorporating strategic rest... recovery... and speed work... Dr. Ali explains how to bridge the gap between events like the Marathon and Wine & Dine without burning out or risking injury.

  Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
  I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
