Hansons Week 4
Monday: 6 miles easy (treadmill) Tuesday: 6x800m with 400 m recovery, 6.5 miles total with WU/CD (treadmill) Wedensday: Rest Thursday: Was suppoosed to be 6 miles tempo (8 with WU/CD). Didi 1 mile WU, 3.5 miles at tempos speed, then had to drop pace down to easy for a bit. Increased pace but not quite back to tempo and quit at 7.5 miles Friday: 6 miles outside. Pace closer to 12:00 Saturday: 8 miles easy (treadmill) Sunday: 8.25 miles outside. Overall pace around 12:00. Had to stop a lot for traffic so it was very inconsistent. Total: 42 miles Overall training is going well. Now that its cooled down a bit I am consistently on the faster side outside. I feel strong at then end of the runs too. I think I need to swap the Thursday and Friday schedule. I can only run early in the am on Thursday and can't eat before. I think this is having a nagative impact on the tempo run. Fridays I generally have time to run a little later in the morning so I have time to eat. Will switch this next week and see how it goes.
