Wow, running three days in a row. Been a while since I've done that. Still pretty stiff from last night's hill run. Went to Cross Park for seven loops around the lake. First loop or two pretty painful, then loosened up and got a bit quicker. Managed to take a tumble as a couple of strollers didn't understand "on your left". When I got off the path to go around them, my foot hit something uneven and down I went. Not sure itf it was a hole or the edge of the path. Doesn't really matter. Landed on the grass and immediately back up.
Set up a Boston program today, which will start at the end of November. Took the work schedule into account, with harder/easier weeks corresponding to off/on work. I actually asked Brad Hudson for a suggestion on FB; he responded with a minimal one, then a pitch to pay him $150 a ,month for a schedule. No thanks, I can take your suggestion and your book and do my own schedule -- and I did. It'll need tweaking, of course, and I won't come anywhere near complete compliance. But it includes all Hudson's favorites -- reps, intervals, hill sprints, MP runs, and enough mileage to do the job if I come anywhere close to following the plan. One of the tweaks may be to insert some races. Only thing plugged in now is the FS half marathon in December. LR would be an option, but I'll have to juggle work some to do that. But then I'll have to juggle things to do FS too. |
