if your pulse is up, you need to be careful that you are not coming down with something

the flip side, is that it is better to have all the ailments now, than during the training that counts

have you any other signs such as itchy throat etc

how are your legs feeling when going up & down stairs, for example?

Thank you the feedback.

Resting pulse is 42 and stable. Heart rate rises on hills and also when it is hotter.

No other ailments. Saw a cardiologist on Friday for all standard tests but all is fine.

I have however had a hard 6 months of running and that is why I wanted to just have a base build
for a 6 to 9 week period to recover.

Otherwise everything seems fine.

OK Armand .. sometimes it is often good to simply take a week off from running

it can be helpful long-term

we will have to monitor everything as you progress

As there is nothing very important coming up over the next three months I will keep you updated with my weekly progress and as soon as the signs are there I will get onto the 10k program.

Where can I view your 6 week marathon program I see mentioned?

Would like to see how you approach the build-up as there is a marathon early November that I might be interested in.

Thank you for your feedback, it is much appreciated.

we use the 10k training program and increase the long run every 3 weeks

have not made the program readily available to the public, however you can read about AB over here

http://www.time-to-run.com/theed/ab/intro-to-the-athlete-ab

this details the development of the athlete all the way through to the marathon
