Hi Ed
right that just may be a little too quick off the mark, lets go back a post or two.
Tuesdays and Thursdays ARE my hard days, but, and here's the slight fly in the ointment.
Tuesday is club pack run, and Thursday is (usually) hillsession of some type with a large group. So, both day's are reasonably social, if I give these up I'll be running on my own every day, and I'll miss the company. We are after all supposed to enjoy our running!
So a current typical week looks like
Mon: easy run of 5.5miles up to 10miles depending on how I feel (occasionally two 5.5 mile runs)
Tue: am easy 5.5ml pm hilly pack tempo run between 9 and 13 miles
Wed: recovery run about 5.5ml
Thu: occasionally easy 5 am - lunchtime always hillsession or interval session
Fri: easy 6 or rest
Sat: 5k parkrun or easy run up to 8 ml
Sun: long run normally about 13.5 sometimes 15.5, or rest if no rest on Fri
I have a couple of weeks holiday next month so maybe best to start afresh after that?
