Started my Training Schedule
Today was Day 1 of my formal training schedule for New York. Here's what I was to do:
1. Run for 10 minutes at easy run pace. Approximately 11:04-11:34 minute mile pace.
2. 8 x 100m repeats at close to maximum intensity. Approximately 25.1-27.6 seconds per 100 meters. 100-meter walk recovery between repetitions.
3. Run for 10 minutes at easy run pace. Approximately 11:04-11:34 minute mile pace.
I managed to do all three components without problem. I used a nearby soccer field for the 100m repeats. On average I did the repeats in about 25 seconds. Tomorrow is a rest day. Thursday my schedule is:
1. Run for 20 minutes at easy run pace. Approximately 11:04-11:34 minute mile pace.
2. Run for 10 minutes at maximum intensity. Approximately 8:34-8:42 minute mile pace.
3. Run for 20 minutes at easy run pace. Approximately 11:04-11:34 minute mile pace.
