Team Schedule - 1st Milestone

Well done, without as much as a whimper, you have completed the 12 week BASE of the 32 week schedule and now would be a good time to reaquaint yourself with the team schedule & goals (gaols) evaluate progress & take a look forward to the next phase, 10 weeks of STRENGTH TRAINING, woop de doo, haud me back, etc etc, what does this involve?

Saturday's "3 race route" trudge was a good introduction to the type of long run workout which will help come race time.

Time on your feet becomes more important than miles, long runs done as offroad walk/runs with some back to back (B2B), Sat/Sun, so that you get used to running on tired legs. You should have sufficient recovery overnight so that you can run long again the next day & also continue the rest of the weeks schedule.

Mini goals updated to include a "Highland Fling" length B2B in March.

You should be looking ahead to ensure the progressive increase in weekday runs, Steady, Rep & recovery Sessions are managed taking account of the usual life work Zulus!

looked at the training programme,i think we can fit in your revised goal no 4 on the 7th and 8th march, that would allow us to take part in the training runs late feb and march on the W.H.W .
