break 38 - RunSam - 09-11-2010
Hi Ed,
Did a 30 min easy run today.
distance 5.08km
time 27.26
max hr 150
av hr 124
Pace 5.24 min/km
Feet feel good but now have a slight knee niggle. Outside of the left, fades after a while. My flexibility is quite poor right now and I think this is the problem. I have the 6x1km planed tomorrow but if it is still there I think I will swop it for another easy run until it loosens up.
What do you think?
thanks

do realise the tightness of the ITB can be related to oversuse .. so do look to take a day off on the easy 30 to 40 minute days as this will make the adaptation process smoother
best

ps.. good to see you knocking the 1000's out, the 1st one shows the speed is there and waiting, just no endurance to back it up .. any races planned?

Hi Ed,
Felt the knee this morning carrying my 1 year old down the stairs. I will take it very easy with the sessions.
No race planned yet, I normally run the Silvesterlopet which is a 10k on new years eve but am in england that week. My main goal is still to break 38 as I have a new bet with the wife. Just trying to get a decent period of training together injury free and then see what (10k) fits me.
Thanks

Hi Ed,
Did my day 12 session today, paced 5k run.
Location: outdoor 400m track
Weather: windy/ 8 degrees
Time 20:25
Max hr 180
Av hr 167
HR 60 sec after finish 101
Found it quite tough, again felt that it was my breathing that was holding me back. Think I need to rest the knee tomorrow these quality sessions irritate it.
Thanks

running will irritate the ITB if it has been over used
consider 1 day on 1 day off till you get the balance and problems sorted
also read - ITB - iliotibial band syndrome
http://www.time-to-run.com/injuries/thebig5/itb.htm
for assistance
please let me know how it goes .. your breathing should feel laboured when attempting a sub 20 minute after not running tempo for quite a while .. it should all move in the right direction with patience and consistent training
good luck

Hello Ed,
I'm not dead, just been keeping a low profile.
I have been doing a bit of running but not on a serious scale. I have been running between 3 and 6 times per week for the last 3 months. But only for 20 mins. I have not been following any of your plans as I have been working on getting my body healthy, have also been doing a fair bit of cycling.
Today I did my first 5x2000 for more 9 months
Was a bit disappointed with the times but I have done little speed work so not very surprising.
1/ 7.57
max hr -168
av hr - 161
90 sec rest - 84
2/ 8.33
max hr -168
av hr - 158
90 sec rest - 83
3/ 8.45
max hr -170
av hr - 161
90 sec rest - 86
4/ 8.50
max hr -171
av hr - 164
90 sec rest - 85
5/ 8.55
max hr -178
av hr - 164
90 sec rest - 85
total 43.00 mins
Time was not good just had no speed in me, was annoyed because it was not particulary tough, just could not keep the speed up. Compaired to my first 5x2000 felt like sitting on the soffa.
My recovery pulse sugests I have decent fitness, what do you think?
You keeping well?

remem .. it would have been best to do a 4k time-trial first, so that you are able to build your sessions off that result
so if you can, pop a 4k time-trial in and we can get the pace for you
judging from the 2k session .. the sub 8 minute first one would have taken the stuffing out the trukey, so it would be expected that the wheels came off
you still managed the full session so that is something
(something but not much fun
)if you do the 4k we can set-up the pace for you to start next week, though maybe starting with the 6 x 1k on Tuesday next week
what say you?
TheEd
ps.. all well this side however a tad busy but working on the settling factor
pps.. welcome back
