January/February Training

Runners:

May I suggest an outline for the next 6 weeks (or so)?

Mondays -- always an easy day, which will be followed by hard days on Saturday and Sunday (see below);

Tuesday -- a long day;

Wednesday -- off, unless you took a day off on any other of the days you were supposed to be training;

Thursday -- hills;

Friday -- easy;

Saturday and / or Sunday -- tempo and or very long. Ideally Saturday should be a tempo (since most of our meets will be on Saturdays and therefore, a tempo will best simulate a day of competition, and Sunday should be your longest run of the week (which can be ridiculously slow).

Now, Sunday's the day that gives me the most concern, since if you are running by yourself, will you go out for a "long" run. And for goodness sakes! You all know how I feel about "long" runs!!! If you can't do it, then let's discuss changing this schedule. But for know, this is how it should flow.
