Sub 45min Program for Triathlete - bingobong - 05-05-2010
Hi coach just logging my times for the 1k session. I caught a fever on the weekend so took a couple of days off to rest and did them this morning (Wednesday - day 9) instead of day #8. Body was a little sore in hindsight I should have listened to the signs and just rested again but I thought I felt ok at the end of my warmup so decided to go for it. Anyway enough whining here are the results (Total time/Avg HR/Max HR/R60 HR):
1) 3:49/150/161/R60=104 (500m splits: 1:50/1:59)
2) 4:10/156/164/R60=118 (500m splits: n/a - forgot to hit lap button)
3) 4:18/159/168/R60=129 (500m splits: 2:04/2:14)
4) 4:17/161/168/R90=129 (500m splits: n/a - forgot to hit lap button)
5) 4:25/158/165/R90=133 (500m splits: 2:10/2:15)
6) 4:01/165/173/R90=131 (500m splits: 2:02/2:00)
Went out too fast in the first interval again - mentally it was very tough to hold pace and form for the entire session. Was struggling by the end of interval #4 but determined to finish the sets and switched to 90s rests as the HR was too high at 60s. Interval #5 I gave into the pain demons and took it a bit easier. I gritted my teeth for #6 and managed to hold it together to the end - I learnt something from that one!. This felt harder than the 2k sessions and the results show.
In hindsight I know I wasn't fully recovered so lesson learned the hard way - rest planned for tomorrow until fully recovered (then easy runs).

Hi bing .. yeah .. when having fever certainly do not try to make up for what is lost .. and depending on the extent of the fever I do have a 2 week return to training schedule that I must get out
it would be very similar to the build up schedule but more easy

Will see how the recovery goes - when I'm back I'll do a 30min easy run to start to see how I feel then check in with you to see what to do next.
