Sub 40 Min Training - TheEd - 14-05-2011
nice to see you getting into the rhythm again
what have you planned as your build up for next week's race?
TheEd
ps.. please do let me know how the legs etc go, always interested to hear things they do, year's ago I used to work with alternative treatment persons and was always interesting
Sub 40 Min Training - ihenman - 15-05-2011
TheEd,
My legs are doing quite well. I've built up a lot of muscle to match the left leg in my right butt, as well as developed some other muscles which stabilize the right leg during gait. The twisting motion in the right shin is severely minimized now.
It takes a lot of concentration though to run for long periods since I'm using the muscles to accommodate for my anteverted hip/leg. It's a strange sensation how my right leg feels now actually making correct motions. Also I can tell a big difference in my power with my stride as I am now fully using two legs to propel me rather then just my left.
For this week I am going to do a 50-60 min run today rather then the 5K TT since I haven't done a lot of 10-12K runs in the past few months.
Also was going to do another 45 Min, 6X x 600 and the 30K Fartlek.
Your thoughts?

this looks fine however apply caution for the 600's

TheEd,
Looks like I'm having a change of plans due to a flooring project my wife wants me to get done sooner than later
So my first race is being moved ahead to June 5th, rather then this weekend.So that gives me another 3 weeks.. Would you suggest I continue as is and start a new cycle in 7 days? OR would it be worth starting a new cycle this week which would end it right on the race day in 3 weeks?

it all depends when the most work needs to be done on the floor
you need to have days 3 to 8 during a period which allows for hard training
after Day 8 it is always more relaxed
what say you?

Sub 40 Min Training - ihenman - 15-05-2011
Good point. The floor will likely take most of Saturday and Sunday to do, which will make both of those days write offs.
BUT I could:
Day 1 (Today) 60 Min
M - Day 2 30 Min
T - Day 3 - 5 x 2K
W - Day 4 Off
T - Day 5 Long Run
F - Day 6 OFF
S - Day 7 OFF
S - Day 8 OFF
M -Day 9 10K
T - Day 10 6 x 1K
I know it throws things a bit off though.
Sub 40 Min Training - TheEd - 15-05-2011
that should be fine but instead of 10k the day before the 1k session rather do a light 20 to 30 minute leg loosener
you will soon know if you should do the 1k session
please let me know how you feel before the 1k session
cheers and enjoy

Hope the Marathon went well over the weekend?
My legs are feeling pretty good today, although were quite tired last Friday after the 2000's and long run. I will post updates after I do the 1000's this morning.
Sunday I did end up getting out for a VERY light job with a friend who is getting into running doing 5 min run - 1 minute walks with here at about a 7:45 / K pace. Also went for a 45 min walk with the dogs yesterday. I'm feeling good today for the 1000's.
Sub 40 Min Training - ihenman - 24-05-2011

Couple of questions:
My goal is to run a 36 min (or sub 36) by the end of this season. How should I be addressing my paces for:
1K's, 2K's, 5K Paced and the 600's I'm doing?
Should I base them off of say an 18:30 5K and a 38 min 10K for now? At least until I break 38 in a race?

you seem to be OK starting out with the paces you are running now and taken from the race or test at the end of this 1st cycle will determine the next set of paces
good to have the aims but you can only do what the body can cope with and sometimes the natural ability can also kick through to provide an unsuspected result
Cheers
