coming off base phase/when to up the pace. - TheEd - 13-08-2014
you can consider doing a 2 week build-up where the focus is on aerobic
no stress

Lovely job so is that 1hr runs per day and follow the build up program on the website.Took a rest today and enjoying the down time thanks Ed regards jon.

yeah .. that should be suffice
try hover around 140 even if you feel it is slow
mid week 2 you should find the pace for 140 bpm speeding up
hope this helps

any runs at the lower intensity yet?
coming off base phase/when to up the pace. - JonathanWardley - 20-08-2014
Hi Ed,
i have some feed back for you with regards to build up heart rates and future plans to race.Firstly i will start with the build up i have one week under my belt and feel fine with it.Heart rate/pace ranges per k range from 4.55-510 on the trails @140 bpm tarmac and road 4.35-4.55 per k 140bpm.Depends on the terrain and time of day with the heat.i find that i can take up to 15 mins before the balance of 140 bpm is stable. Moving on to the build up my feeling is to extend the duration to the end of next month as there are no races and i plan to race next 30th November.This is prime time to run the better times as its a lot cooler to run.I would hope to keep the build up going until the end of next month which would give me two further months to get in shape for late November and December January best times to run fast..What i would like to do if you approve of the 6 week build up is try to run the 5x8 mins at say 4mins per k so i am not totally loosing my speed as this has happened before.looking forward to your thoughts regards jon.

after the first 3 week cycle, consider doing a 4k time-trial
this assists in establishing a marker as to where you are now
then the 5 x 8 minutes can be given to you at a pulse range and you should then get a per km marker etc
this is so you can see the direction of your development

Hi ED,
Thanks for the feed back. What I would ask is do you think 3 weeks would be enough on build up?? As I know in the past 6 weeks on build up kills my speed off big time I know it will come back but if I was to hold something while building the base would be a bit more relaxed about it regards jon.

if you do the 4k time-trial before you start the next 3 week cycle it will serve a a marker, then you do another build-up cycle and you can do the 4k again, to see how things are going
from my experience using the programs over the years, the athletes come back stronger and whereas they are not as 'sharp' they are stronger and when they do the 4k time-trial it is often a similar time to when they were doing speedwork
the return to the 2k session is tough however come the 1k session and the athlete starts moving to the next level
everything is progressive, however the secret is in establishing consistency
on we go

Hi Ed,
wanted to type a few lines on what we discussed about the build up. As shown the aerobic base is my weakness which is been dealt with. I feel pleased and happy how things are moving on. I think I would like to add a steady state run into the build up every week nothing too strong but just enough to keep some speed in my legs. Also the 1.15 run I would like to push out to 90 mins .Now that work is on the horizon I will relax do the training and plan to be in shape November time when its cooler and ideal to run quicker. All in all just to say thanks the games on.:jive:
