Starting today, I am beginning a new training plan. After going into Boulder Running Co. I lucked into a college coach who is taking time off to pursue his running career. I was asking some general questions, and seeing how new a runner I am, he decided that he would help coach me. I am very grateful, since he is taking time away from his own running to help me. He plans on creating a multi-peak season for me. One peak will take place at the Bolder Boulder in late May and one will take place at next years cross country tryouts. As of now, my mileage will drop to 45 miles/week, but will steadily increase as time progresses (we still have 26 weeks before Bolder Boulder). I have faith in his coaching strategys, mainly because he (himself) has run a sub 14:30 5k using this type of training plan. What luck!!! |
