Gonna got the trails after I finish this marathon on Labor Day. Gunning for a 50k in November. Will have 9k feet of elevation gain. It will be fun to just get out there and try to finish rather than being so worried about splits.

I have a odd/beginner type question-->
Is there any benefit to adding sprints to the end of a scheduled run?
For a specific example, I do an out & back on a paved nature trail for my 7 mile runs. Often , I'll find myself running long on the way out and having .75 - 1 left over on the way back.
So I could -->
A. Turn it into a 7.75 mile run
B. Walk
C. Add on hard sprints as far as I can push it , walk , and repeat till I get back to my car
