I ran an easy 5.5 miles today at easy pace. My workout schedule calls for an easy, short run after the run that is 25% of my weekly volume (yesterday). I believe that this is meant to allow me to fully recover before returning to training. As of now, I am only doing easy miles, but within the next couple of weeks, strides will be thrown in with short fartlek workouts to prepare me for faster speeds. I know that my coach will pick the right workouts for the right time, so I don't want to over-analyse my workouts. I figure that if I do what he says (seeing as he has coached for a college team), I will be properly prepared for Bolder Bolder and next years CU tryouts. |
