How many times have you heard bad training advice?  Right; there's a lot of it.  Here's a quick list, plus some (hopefully) good advice as well.

More is Better.  
Maybe not - without rest and recovery, the stress of training just makes you tired instead of creating an adaptive response.

Just Run.
Most other sports emphasises technique, while some runners just run a lot - cardiovascular training is imperative, but poor form can lead to injuries and is inefficient.

Description

Roughly 8 miles of hiking and 4 miles of pack-rafting or canoeing.  Route begins near Carr's canoe rentals at Round Spring at the signpost that states it's the beginning of the CRC.  You then hike roughly 4 miles from there to Echo Bluff State Park.  Then you hike another roughly 4 miles to Current River State Park.  At the river, you'll begin your roughly 4-mile float back to the put-in road behind Carr's canoe rental, where the route ends.
