Week 3 :: Planning
Plan for this week which I set last week (changed a bit).
Mon - REST
Tue - 7 inc 5k Virtual relays attempt
Wed - 12 lsr
Thu - 8 easy
Fri - 5 threshold
Sat - 10 easy
Sun - 9 steady
51 miles
So today is a rest day. I am buzzing to run if I'm honest which is a good sign that things are coming to fruition. 2 rest days in short succession off a solid build should lead to a decent run for tomorrows 5k attempt. Well, I'll be ready for it - not sure it'll exactly be a fast time.
Right now I'd be very happy to go under 18 mins if I can get some effort in. I've never been one for training races but I'll have a go and see what happens.
Wednesday I will finally get a proper long run in. I need to get a longer than 10 in every week to take things seriously. I'm keen to get the 2 bigger sessions in early after a build to get the CTL back on track.
The rest of the week will be pretty easy but I will go and do a threshold 5 on Friday. The HR has been way high lately so not expecting anything amazing pace wise but I can use this and the 5k as a guide for effort and review VDOT paces again going forward.
More miles planned that last week but off a fresh start I don't see any problem.
Not entirely sure what to do the following week but the next few days will give an indicator. Also a lot depends on how the foot holds up. Feels pretty good today so hopefully tomorrow is all a.o.k It'll either be a repeat of this (or close but swap out some intervals) or back to the miles if the foot isn't getting better.
