Bring 5K back under 18 minutes.
Current training phase: Base building and weight loss (getting slower to get faster). Long-Term Running Goals: Have fun with my training and races. Maintain athleticism and physical versatility through old age. I'll probably run many marathons, but I won't do pure marathon training year-round because I am probably more interesting in maintaining overall athletic versatility. Personal: My approach to training is feeling and effort based. Particular workouts should feel a certain way and I try to apply the right amount of effort to match that feeling. On the other hand, I'm pretty analytical by nature so I like to analyze and record my workouts in thorough detail. I think optimal training is a balance between the intuitive and analytical.

A.M. 11 mile progression run along the Jordan River Parkway.
I felt a little tired and flat at the beginning. This is not surprising because of the pressure of the grant deadline I'm facing. I let my body dictate the pace and felt increasingly better as the run progressed. I moved from Base I to Base II, through AT, and then ran the last mile at LT in 6:46.
My achilles felt fine. I can run hills, tempos, light intervals, and go long now. I'd say its 80% healed, I just can't do any fast work. This is a little frustrating because as a "fast" distance runner I'm really dependent on speedwork to become fit. I'm eager to head into some solid interval training but will continue a systematic progression, making incremental increases in the stress I put on my achilles. Slowly but surely. . . | | Comments(1) |
