Easy does it

Yesterday, my marathon training plan listed: "5 miles, easy." If you are actually following a specific plan for a race of any distance, it helps to understand the terms that are used. Nearly every race plan includes "easy" days, but what exactly does that mean? Easy is not specific at all--it is the opposite of "hard"--I know that much. But how easy is easy? What does "easy" mean for me? It's obvious that easy days alternate with "hard" days, so it's plain to see that this easy-hard pattern is meant to keep runners from turning every workout into a Hard Day.
