Good afternoon!
Amateur runner should choose a time of day for training taking into consideration lots of factors. Professional runners have no such dilemma. The choice is simple for them: morning and evening.
You should take into account your work schedule, sleep time and resting time, dietary pattern, training conditions and so on. Either way all of this affects training efficiency. To ignore these factors means to decrease a positive effect from training in advance.
As a rule, “heavy legs” is a condition occurred as a result of intensive training associated with lactate accumulation. Light running and walking have beneficial effect on recovery processes of muscles. Thermal (sauna, contrast shower) and mechanical (massage) action on muscles accelerates recovery period as well.
It’s definitely impossible to prepare for a marathon in 3 months if you’ve never run before!
