Half marathon training - TheEd - 23-06-2011
you can also do a 4k time-trial if you want
that may have more value for now

Hi TheEd. Did a 4k "time trial" on the treadmill in 16' 14". I just adjusted the speed to 14,8 km/h and a little slope of 1%. I don't know if it is of any value, but it was to cold and windy outside today.

it is of value and you can also use this as a future measure for your time-trials (indoors)

Hi TheEd. Did 3x2k today @ 14,3 kmh (aprox 4min 12 sec per k). I wasn't able to do more because didn't have enough time (although I'm not sure if i would have been able to do more). HR max were 171, 175, 178 in each repetition, down to 113, 126 in between.

I hope so. Today did my long run, 25 k in 2h 19min. My hip flexors hurt a little during most of the run (i think is my weak point). I'm almost decided to run the Marathon on Sept. 11, so I shall be starting your special plan with the beginning of August (even if I haven't progressed that much on the 10K plan).

Hi TheEd. Couldn't do the 1k reps on tuesday, so I did them (sort of :o
yesterday at night. Actually only did 4, because the club where I go was full of people and I had to leave the treadmill after half an hour (is the time you're allowed when there are people waiting). After that did a little stationary bike and then some upper body exercise. I forgot to mention the pace was the same as last time, except for the last one that I set the treadmill to 14.9 km/h.Rgds.

Hi TheEd. Didn't have any race to do this weekend so yesterday did another long run, invited by other fellow runners who are preparing the september marathon. We did 28 k in 2 hs. 37 minutes. I first used my new Garmin hr monitor with footpod, so I would be able to provide additional data from now on. I think I should tweak the pod because it showed almost exactly 1k less than the distance we did. In the past week I only did the 10x400 m on the treadmill at 15,6 km/h speed. Should I begin another cycle this tuesday? My main objectives are the august 14th. half marathon and sept. 11th. marathon. What do you think?
Regards,
Héctor

Hi TheEd. This week I started another cycle towards the half marathon I'm running on August 14th. On tuesday did 12,4 km in 1h 13min. Yesterday night did the 5x2K. I was able to complete 5 for the first time in a while. Not sure if the footpod is well calibrated (I think I may have run a little more than 2k each time, but not too much)
