Alright thanks, after 3 threads that’s basically the consensus

And as for the running, practices are with the team. They usually begin 20 minutes after school to give you time to get changed, 10 minute warmup, 20 minute stretching, etc. Actually it tends to be up to 3 hours before I get home. And a lot of my mileage during the school year are higher intensity intervals, like 6 x 1200’s (3 laps each) with a recovery time in between each. In the summer I worked up to 50 miles/week but they were slow and easy. So I get home at 5-6, and then I need 2 “recovery hours” after a hard practice/meet because I just want to relax and eat.

I know this isn’t anything special for anyone dedicated to a year-round sport, but if I had had an extra 3-5 hours a day, it would’ve mean a hell of a lot of debate tournaments, volunteering, and time for clubs. Or maybe I would have just sat at home and did absolutely nothing.
