Week 3/16


Week 3/16:

CF 3x this week

Interval 1: 20x100m with 1 min walking rest - should be thoroughly warmed up before beginning, each run should be @ 90%

Interval 2: 3x1mile repeats with 5 min rest – should be thoroughly warmed up before beginning, each run should be done at a pace that can be held for all three intervals

Stamina: 4 miles TT – time trial…this should be the fastest 4 miles you can run…headphones in, hood up, alone on a track/course!  Get at it!

I would like to have more people posting their results or something stating that they are completing the workouts in the comments.  Let’s get active.  Create a bit of a community here.  You all have the same end goals here whether it is the full marathon or half.  Stay on it!

  1. 20 sprints is A LOT.

    I did this at the gym today (body couldn't take any weight after Linda..haha). It's 100 meters out the back door of the gym, around the corner of Green Seed, to the end of the parking lot.

    Total = 4.85 mile
    Fastest 100 = 13.7
    Slowest 100 = 17.0
    AVG 100 = 15.7

    Note that I cannot count and went 22 instead of 20.

  4. I got my runs in during Christmas, but posting from an iPad didn't work. I'll be out there tonight.

    My problem has been the warmup. I tend to show up to the track, decide it's too cold to not get anything done, and jump right into the workout. That method always ends in disaster and is not recommended.

    1. Ya, don't be that guy. In this cold weather you would ideally spend 15-20 min warming up and then another 10-15 cooling down and stretching. Train smart!
