Hey TheEd,
Hope you got settled back home after your holiday.
Quick update:
Fri: Walked to work & back: 1hr 30min
Sat: 1hr medium walking
Sun: 5.5Km/30:45/129AvgHR - was walk/run due to high wind and rain, felt a little tired from sitting around on Sat PM.
Am feeling very upbeat about what I learn last year. Feels like I have re-engineered my whole approach to training and maintaining my fitness levels and also how to build up for peak performances although there were not enough of those last year, am hoping this year all last years work will pay off. Slowly building back up for the 19-day cycle is the order of this week coming.
Have planned a training/race strategy for achieving the sub-40min 10Km.
Aim to do is May the 8th (or before if in condition). This is about 16 weeks away. If I start the first 19-day cycle next Sunday and use this week as a build up, should be able to turn over 4 decent races before May the 8th. There is a 5km in three times this weekend so might do that rather than a 10km a week later - am also away that w/end so might be better.
How should I proceed this week? Were planning a Swim session tomorrow night.
Another Waddle Tuesday? 30-35 minutes?
Cheers,
D
