When to start program? Need advice. - TheEd - 06-12-2008
OK your weekend runs could be a steady 8km on Saturday up to 155 bpm
Sunday - 1hr easy up to 140bpm
Monday Rest
Tuesday - 75mins up to 145bpm
feedback necessary including how the heart rate went and Thursday will be your introduction to the 2000m session, which I fear may be on a treadmill after seeing your pic of the track
Cheers

I think you may find it necessary to do the 2000's on a treadmill on Thursday
Will provide further feedback and a little more detail tomorrow
Looks like your temps are dropping to below zero soon

This is the workout for today, it was quite hilly and a little longer than expected. Good felling. Noticed that I run faster now, in fact 26 sec/km compared to a similar session 7 weeks ago with exactly the same avg. hr. And the track today is even harder!

OK .. Kilroy having gone through things there is no reason for you not to start with the sub 40min 10k program
tomorrow (Thurs) would be - 5x2k R90 7min 50 (3.55 per k)
feedback is important and so is the completion of the session even if you get slower than the time asked for
so more importance on completing the 5x2k and less importance on achieving the time for all 5
Feedback appreciated

Great, looking forward to give sub40 program a try during the winter months.
I think the thursday session will be done on a treadmill, should I use 1% ascend?
Looking ahead, which day am I on now? Since my recent days and the startup been quite different from the program I would like to know a couple of days ahead because I will be away this weekend. Although I think I can fit in a session or two if necessary

HI kilroy
today is Day 2 tomorrow Day 3 .. in future if you race on a Sunday then we change the the last few days .. program Day 1 starts on a Tuesday
yes, increase the elevation slightly, for some reason this makes it slightly more bearable training on a treadmill and it makes the session equivalent to training outside, unless those who have done so in the past, did so as to punish themselves
Enjoy the 2000's it is quite a session
Good luck

Hello Ed,

7:48 - 162 hr. avg (rest between 2-3 @ 142 hr. avg)
7:48 - 166 hr. avg (rest between 3-4 @ 147 hr. avg)
7:48 - 168 hr. avg (rest between 4-5 @ 149 hr. avg)
7:43 - 169 hr. avg
Overall hr. avg 161
Max hr during session 177
It was a really hard workout, great feeling afterwards.
Back to you. By the way, have some problems with my calendar so I think I will do the day 5 (long run) tomorrow instead and rest on saturday.

Interesting session kilroy
will be most interested in Tuesday 1000's session
Please take a Rest day tomorrow and if you short of time on Saturday then simply do a 20 to 30 minute jog
however do not put a long run on a day after the quality session such as today
Are you able to do the longrun on Sunday?
05 longest run - 'time on feet' up to 1Hr 30min
then Monday can be an easy recovery 20 to 30 mins
That would be the best
Cheers
TheEd
