Newbie questions.

Hi.

I've been reading posts and I have 2 questions please.

1. What is the RICE method?

2. What is the 10% rule?

Thank you for any helps 👍😃

RICE - treatment for strains/injuries (rest, ice,compression,elevate) Hope you don't need that one for a while!!😮

10% rule - For increasing distance (after the programme!) it is recommended that you do not increase a long run by more than 10% of your total weekly distance. Many graduates progress to 10k using this method and turning one of their three runs in to their weekly long run. Hope this makes sense?🙂

Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to explain. Hopefully I won't need the first and will take my time getting to the second 👍😁

There are still loads of weird terms that I don't and never will understand. To me running is running!!
