Improving 10k with regular training - MMS - 17-02-2010
Hi Coach,
I stayed 1 week without doing any running. Used this time to rest and recover (same routine during physio time: ice, stretch, etc). I ran 30min last Monday and another 30 min this morning. Plan to run again on Friday. I donââ¬â¢t fell the achilles while I run, just after I wake up (after 2-3 steps, it stops), but now itââ¬â¢s less than last week. I plan to run 3-4times a week, 30min and increase time by 10% each week to see how it develops. How does it sound?
Tks.

I know it's a conservative approach, but as I progress, we can change time/distance of a week, don't have to stick to the 10%. Lets see how it goes the next couple of weeks.
I just want to be able to follow the program again. :please:

Hi Coach, how are you?
Iôm feeling great. I was able to run 4 times last week (Mon, Wed, Fri and Sun, 30min at 6:30/k with one run at 6:00/k) and the Achilles is no longer aching. Even though, kept doing icing, stretching, etc as usual.
Today I started week 2 running for 35min at 6:20/k. I intend to keep both time and speed and monitor how it goes. Hopefully, next week I will be running for 40 minutes.
By the way, how is your running these days?
Tks.

Hi Coach,
We had two warm weeks here, but now itââ¬â¢s rainy again. The good news is that the temperature dropped a few degrees and itââ¬â¢s better to run.
Well, I could accomplish my weekly goal, I ran four times (Mon, Wed, Fri and Sun) for 35min at 6:20/6:30 per km. My foot is fine and tomorrow Iââ¬â¢ll start week 3 running for 40min. Iââ¬â¢m becoming more confident now and I believe that after another two or three weeks I could restart the program without any problems.
Icing and stretching remains as a routine.
Tks.

Looks like Iôll be back to training soon.
Last week as also able to complete my weekly goal. Again, ran four times (Mon, Wed, Fri and Sun) but for 40 minutes and a bit "faster" (@ 6:10/k). Foot remains ok and Iôm feeling more comfortable while running. This week Iôll add 5 minutes.
After running for 45min minutes this week, I intend to change how it goes. Instead of running one day and resting the next one, I was thinking of running two consecutive days, then take a day off. What say you?
Cheers.

Hi Coach,
Last week I had some work commitments (business travel) and I missed one run. Everything else is fine. So, I believe I will try to repeat what I was supposed to do last week (4 runs, 45min each).
Hereôs a sum up of past 4 weeks:
Week 1: 18,9K (4 runs, 30min, @ 6:25/k)
Week 2: 21,9k (4 runs, 35min, @ 6:25/k)
Week 3: 25,8k (4 runs, 40min, @ 6:15/k)
Week 4: 21,8k (3 runs, 45min, @ 6:15/k)
The 10K race was transferred to the 28th. So, I was thinking of using It as a ââ¬Ålong runââ¬Â, not race it. How does it sound? :mmm:
Tks
