Going for sub40 - danielpepe - 21-10-2008

Great,
Due to calendar conflict I will rather do tomorrow the Day 3 session @ 4:20 as you suggested.
I will give you the result afterwards.


Thanks

This is the 1st time for 2000 mts workout. I've done only 400 or 800 mts.

I will wait for your feedback.Smile

Thanks again for your help!

a good session and your feedback is excellent

try to add the pulse rate for during the 90 second rest, please, as this can provide a great deal to work with

The 2000m session is the backbone to the programs and with progression you will hopefully be doing 5 x 2000m

Big Grin

Look forward to further feedback

also provide am pulse rate so we can see your resting pulse rate average

This is good daniel

Onwards and forwards

Hi Ed,
I was out only on Friday. Weekend too many family visits for such a sort time.
Anyway, Friday I did 15K in 1:18 min. Great feeling around 5:10 Km.
Also am HR on Saturday was 38/40!!!
Based on your plan, I made some adjustments to look for sub 42. basically same as sub40, but different paces.
Here are the modifications:
5x2k R90 @ 4.15
6x1k @ 4:00 or 4:10
5K in less than 21:00
10x400m R60 400/96 sec

Please let me know if you think is more or less acceptable for me. The rest of training days, I will try my best to complete them.


Thanks a lot!
Daniel.

Hi Daniel

OK .. an increase in pace by 5 to 10 seconds per K should be fine

so your 1k session would be around 4.05 to 4.10

you have the 2k pace right and can still hover 5 seconds faster but only attempt that on the last 2 of the 2000m session

the 5k pace simply run 21 minutes as comfortably as you can

400m 94/96 should be fine as it is a short session

the pace increase from 2k to 1k to 400m is 10 seconds per km

Onwards and forwards

enjoy

The rest of the week has been normal workouts, following your plan. I went for an stress test on Wed. I will share results with you probably next week.

Sunday I will go for 1h30m.

Thanks again.
Daniel.

Hi daniel

the 2000m session should be on a Thursday and not a Friday, if working on the pattern we roll out on.

If you want to get onto that routine then you need take a Rest day tomorrow and carry on with the long run on Sunday

then Tuesday next week you shall do the 1000m session

Keep us informed

TheEd

Thanks Ed,
I will do so. Rest tomorrow and go for long run on Sunday. The reason I did adjust the 2000m session for today is because the race will be on sunday 16th of nov.


Have a great weekend.

Daniel.
