Hi Ed
I've looked at your build up programme before, but on this occasion I had to jump straight into the 10K programme to get a reasonable time in a race (luckily I didn't pick up any injuries).
I think if I ran a 10K tomorrow I could do 42 minutes.
I'm training towards a flat 10K race in exactly 2 rotations of your plan (today is Day 1). I have two questions please:
1. Is it impoortant to do recovery runs on the days immediately after a run. I am finding that I am struggling to walk quickly let alone run in the two days following a hard run.
2. I need to gain 1 minute per rotation and am concerned that if I don't nail the 2000s I'm going to struggle. Any suggestions?? Would you recommend re-doing the 2000s if my performance isn't good enough.
Thanks
Matt
