I decided to lay off the bike the remainder of last week, was a long weekend in Canada so I ran Thursday and Saturday and will hit the trail again today.
Leg is feeling about 75% or so... It doesn't "pain" as per se, but it is tender if I push (which for what ever reason I test once and a while).
I am supposed to race a 10K this up coming Sunday, I am not sure if I should bother or not...
This week I was going to
Monday - Steady run 40 Min (8K or less)
Tuesday - Cycle in Morning 45 Min steady w/ focus on form & Cardio
Wed - Easy Tempo Run of 40 Min (10 min easy - 20 min at about 85-90% HR - 10 min easy)
Thursday - Off
Friday - 30 Min easy (6 K or less)
Saturday - Good walk with my dogs
Sunday - Possible 10K race
What are your thoughts on this... I would like to then introduce the Sub 40 Min 10K program after the race BUT modify a bit running 4 times a week and cross training twice rather then running 6 with 1 day off.
Thought I could replace the 30 Min easy run days w/ 30-40 min of cardio on the bike (easy in the 70%-75% HR range).
