coming off base phase/when to up the pace. - JonathanWardley - 05-04-2014
Hi Ed
Just wanted to ask your thoughts about training as i will be going to work on the 21st of april for 3 to 4 weeks so training might dry up badly as i am unsure what gym equipment will be available to me..is it best to finish the 3 week cycle or go back to day 1 and work at the 2k reps again as speed is the problem at the moment..The heat was not so bad today so i think my 4k time will improve greatly when its not 35 degrees as seen even 4mins per k is hard in the heat probley a good time not to be racing anyway..speak soon and regards jon.

if you able to do press ups, sit ups etc when you away?
if there is no running there is no running
so focus on muscle conditioning using your own weight for best effect

ps.. thoughts

HI ED
Had a bit of thinking time about my lay off if it means i cant train well so be it i will find something that raises the pulse and try and focus on that.Feel like i am in a funny position right now going through the cycle running not even close to the target times only to encounter another hurdle in a few weeks time where training might stop..All i can say is it feels like i am saving up for a divorce..wont think to much as i am way off been fit anyhow i dont get hiw i loose my speed so much over a short 3 week build up with some 400s as a part of the build up to prevent this ive actually got worse then i remember in around 3 to 4 years ago..My weight is up also and feel that once ive got back would like a diffrent approch to build ups as the road back to where i left off takes 6 to 8 weeks so not really progressing only returning to old standards have time anyhow to figure it out and adding more volume so thats a plus over to you regards jon

Unfortunately, this is what is happening according to circumstances .. do realise to be a little heavier is better than being injured
you are running, your are positive
it is all about current circumstances, there is no need for further pressure currently
will chat to you privately

Hi Ed
Just a round up on the training really as i am nearly through my first cycle i would like to run a 4k time trial sunday and see how things are.Felt tired this week and making a big effort to loose weight and get back to the correct weight and form.On a nicer note ive got plenty of time to get myself together for july so i figure just keep going through the cycles and let it unfold thats all for now regards jon.

Hi Ed
Think a few lines are in order after all ive been a bit out of shape in terms of weight and form.So as you know i did the 4k time trial it was hot as allways but doable today..Things are going forward and i would say my next cycle start point would be 3.45 per over 2 k and 3.40 per k on the 1k reps over to you ed regards jon.

Hi Ed
Just a few lines to say ive found myself a target race on july 6th..plan now is to relax and let the training work.Ive a plan to run bangkok half marathon in november so will focus on adding some miles in on the long runs.I feel that once the 10k times come down over the coming months will line me up to run the half marathon sub 1.20 would be nice lets see how we go regards jon.

Hi Ed
I have a little more time on my hands to fit a race in on the 27th so i would ask you what key sessions you would have me do as there is limited time on my side just want to get some zip back in my legs regards jon.
