Shoe rotation involves having several pairs of shoes for different purposes and intentionally selecting the appropriate pair for a particular training session. Some are best for easy runs, some for faster intervals, and some for races.

Instead of the planned ten kilometers, do two or three. Not enough? No, you’re still getting your workout in. Sound too simple to work? That’s exactly why it works.
