10km training plan advice - TheEd - 07-07-2010

Hi Manos

you more than welcome to provide feedback of your marathon training however we have not added our marathon training schedules to Time-to-Run because we do not provide 'beginner' marathon training but prefer to give 'novice' marathon training to runners who have been training at least a year before going to the marathon

the marathon can have many pitfalls and often the training can lead injuries etc just like any training however the amount of time of feet for marathon training increases the injury risk

sorry for the long explanation

Manos .. you must be careful of such sessions

Monday - running 45 min With 8X30sec fast 30sec easy

because they can bring you to a peak in your training

30 seconds fast with 30 seconds slow is almost a race equivalent and is often used to bring athletes to a peak

so if you are not planning on racing soon try to avoid such sessions

You are doing a fair amount of running at a high heart rate and if you are planning towards a marathon, aerobic work at 60 - 70% of max hr is considered better for training / development

I am not sure of your max HR however taking your age into account you would most probably be hovering around 180 plus max (do you know your max HR?)

it also seems as though you are used to testing your limits but I would advise caution for a marathon build-up

would you consider the 4km you ran to be a valuable time-trial we can work off?

Cheers

OK .. you look as though you certainly have some mileage in the legs and tank

with further feedback it will make for interesting reading

but as mentioned, not a fan of the 30 sec fast / 30 sec slow session

Till later

Hello coach
I hope you are fine
Last Sunday I race the difficult Athens classic marathon at 3:23:29 . Everything was good for me except that I was starting from the last block (because was my firsts marathon) & I had to make lot of vvvvvvv to pass over and that cost me about 450 meters more + some min.
I have all the data from my Garmin with splits by Km ,if you are interesting I can send you the link to see it and tell me your opinion about my race.
I plan now to rest for 2 weeks from last training period, about 11000km cycling & 2200km running.After that I will start slowly with next targets
1) 10 April 2011 half marathon
2) 22 May 2011 Copenhagen marathon
3) 11 June 2011 10Km road race .
I hope you can help me ;-)
Many greetings to you!!!
