hello theEd,
I have a question about the spacing of the program. I have a 5K on July 4th, a 10K on August 30th and a final 10K on October 4th.
I've been coming back from my knee injury by alternating running and walking. Started at 5x(1R-1W), now up to 3x(14R-1W) moving up to 5x(9R-1W) then 4x(14R-1W).
I was planning on starting the off training to get myself back to continuous running of 1h then build up then start the cycle which would end right on time for my 5K race on July 4th.
After that I'm not too sure what I should do. There is about 3 cycles between that race and the August 30th race. Then 1-2ish cycle until the last Oct 4th race. Not sure if I should take a break between the 5K and the two 10K so to not have 5 cycles back to back (about 4 months total while the program says to take a break every 2-3 months). Probably overthinking things :p.
So far I'm mostly pain free too!
