not necessary to run faster currently .. keep those sessions easy and focus on getting the slightly longer runs under the belt (in the legs)
how you finding things?

Things are pretty fine!
I Just thought if would be ok now, after a few months of work, to increase speed. The quality sessions are becoming easier, but theỷ̫re still challenging.
Just a thought (of a beginner runner) that crossed my mind. :whistle:
Last night̫̉s session:

Nice!!!
So, let me see if I got it right.
New cycle (sub 50min) starting on Tuesday. Race on August 23rd, after that a break.
Sounds perfect!
Tks
MMS
Then you replied:
http://www.time-to-run.com/forums/showpo...tcount=177
yes .. then it will be time to go through the
Rest and Recovery period
followed by
The Build Up period
once you have done this you come back with all the elements and your next period of training on the 10k programs goes to an even higher level
TheEd
So, I understood I should begin a new sub 50min cycle on july 7th. Have the race on August 23rd and only after this race begin Rest and Recovery.
What do you suggest? :mmm:
MMS
Sorry MMS
your training has been too closely associated to someone else's training based in the Trinidad
got you 2 mixed up
apologies
continue as you are but don't increase the pace too much for this cycle aim to work on the long runs and recovery runs
so if you on a longer run then look to increase the HR on those runs by 5 to 10 bpm with the speed (2000 - 1000's) pace staying more or less the same
then this brings the overall program to a new level so that when you increase the quality session speed you get the overall program benefit
Please ask questions for a better understanding of this
TheEd
Don̫̉t worry, Coach.:great:
Let̫̉s see if I got it right.
1. During the longer runs I was aiming a AHR around 145 to 150. Now you said I could increase this by 5 to 10 bpm. My new target could be AHR 155 to 160. Ok?
2. Easy runs remain easy. AHR 145 or below.
3. Quality sessions remain the same.
I guess that̫̉s it, up to to the race day.
Please let me know if it̫̉s all correct!
Tks
MMS
yes that's correct
you should receive the benefit of the overall program and then when the Build Up training starts you will see there are a number of 1hr runs in that program
Exciting times ahead
TheEd
That̫̉s for sure, Coach.
Looking forward to this!!!
As you know, my ahr is higher during morning runs, so this weekend I had both runs in the morning, to better adapt myself.

I expected a higher bpm compared to the last session, but it was quite similar.

Ỉ̫m felling more confident after each morning run. Ỉ̫ll probably have a good result next 10k race on August 23rd.
Let̫̉s work for that!

always remember to take the conditions of the day into account .. heat and wind play havoc on pulse rate
nice going
