Half marathon training - Héctor - 15-04-2012
Hi TheEd. I'm sorry for being absent these last weeks, but wasn't able to run that much due to other commitments. Anyway my hamstring seems to be ok now. A couple of runs now and then (did the 10x400 on tuesday, as always most of them faster than I should). Yesterday went for another time trial, that I failed to end :noway:, but by 3k I was at 11:41. I will try to begin another cycle this week, I suppose I should maintain my last 2k and 1k paces.
Yesterday splits:
Warm-up 4,4k in 24' , some skipping and striders and then the intended 4k ended at 3,08 in 12' 2" as follows:
1) 3' 49" avghr 164 maxhr 174
2) 3' 59" , 173, 175
3) 3' 53", 177, 179
4) 75m in 21"

OK .. now you have the 4k and we can work from there .. don't be too hassled by the slower paces to start with
2k session 4.20 per K = 8.40
you can do this on Thursday if you feeling relaxed, if not then let me know and we can consider starting with a new cycle next week rather
over to you

I think I'm not ready for 3 fast (for me) running days in 6. I prefer to wait and begin next week.

Hi. There is an 8k race next saturday that I may do (kind of cross it's part on a sand horse track, then some dirt and tarmac, 2 4k laps), ÿWhat would you suggest me to do these days?. Since my tuesday night run only ran yesterday 10k easy.

if you trying to get back into rhythm and you want to get some training in and then take part in the race (and the race is not that important)
then you can do 6 x 1k @ current 5k pace with Rest 2 minutes
session on Tuesday
hope the session is enjoyable
