Is a day-late recovery run still a recovery run?

I just could not get it in the calendar yesterday….so I ran this morning a quick (and brisk!) 8 KM.  Really, I should have done it yesterday.  But like I said, there was just not enough time in the day.

So if you run a recovery run a day late, is it still a recovery?  I felt pretty good out there.  Keep in mind, it is all relative, given the collection of issues that I face with my falling apart body these days!  But I will save that for my next post.

So I consulted the Internet and really didn’t get an answer, other than on some recovery days, it is not a bad idea to do NOTHING!  So perhaps it wasn’t that I did a recovery run a day late, rather I missed an tempo run today.  And now I have to catch up.

So much for feeling ahead of the game!
