coming off base phase/when to up the pace. - TheEd - 23-09-2013
nice Jon, try to get as much aerobic in while you there
and best to not have quality running below 2 minutes at a time
so if you work on doing 5 x 8 minutes @ projected 10k pace, you will get in a decent session
for now, leave the 4k out, and save for when you a landlubber again
though you can consider running up to 1hr at tempo
an ideal tempo pace would be around 4 minutes per k .. no need for anything quicker and would be good to correlate heart rate data with this pace
please give your thoughts on this proposal

Hi Ed,
thanks for the post I do agree with you that under two minute reps are a bit short.I am more than happy to miss the 4k time trial its not idea on a treadmill and a good solid tempo runs will good.So you would say 4 mins per 1k for 1 hour will roll with that also.Theres alot of good feeling with the training at the moment i am enjoying the climb back up to fitness looking on the bigger picture i will be finished work in December and take around 4 months off so there should be plenty of time to get in real shape..As for my heart rate monitor the battery died so ill get it sorted when i get home on the 16th of October.well that's all for now and thanks again Jon.

Hi Ed,
just wanted to type a few lines had a good week of training this far i ran well all week and feel i need an extra rest day which ill will have tomorrow my body's tired and needing a day off.I will do 45 mins easy Sunday then go on to the 5x8 mins Monday at say 3.40 does this sound OK or a bit quicker?? not sure what you think about this speak soon regards jon.

remember not to try to do too much quality but rather get more towards the aerobic side at least 60% of the training, the 8 minutes at 3.40 per k should be fine
try to relax up on things as you training 'nicely' now, no need to get too 'intense'
all the best

during this period do try to formulate something similar to
Day 3 to Day 8 .. and then to have easy weeks (days) that follow
that way you can become accustomed to the cycles

Hi Ed,
just wanted to give you an update on whats been done.I did 3x 1mile at 3.40 per k off a 90 second recovery followed by an easy 30 mins yestoday.Reason been i have a slight niggle in my left glute so ive backed off the training think its a small problem but still the warning shots where there.I have been following the cycle with the day 3 and 8 been quality work.I hope to run easy 40 mins tommorrow and see how things are but if it hurts ill stop and wait until things are better thats all for now regards jon.
