Notes:
Very pleased with the progress made in my training so far. My feet and legs are slowly growing accustomed to the miles. My work capacity has declined slightly but that is to be expected with the added focus on endurance. Most of my training has been sport specific and it is nice to have a singular goal in mind as well as 18 months to train. Having a solid goal has helped immensely in my motivation to train. Due to increased mileage, I have added some grains and carbs back into my nutrition and have seen little change in body composition, yet have vastly increased performance in intervals and long runs. Added oatmeal and raisins in for breakfast and have seen increased ability and energy on longer runs. I have learned to enjoy the long slow runs and rucks because I can be alone and enjoy the outdoors. I am getting more confidence in my running form and my body is slowly adapting to higher mileage. I believe I have a solid base and will start increasing the length of the long runs. I have added extra emphasis on stretching post workout and adding ROM drills to pre-workout and believe that both have added to my recovery ability. Surprisingly, hills (uphill) have been a strength as of late which is encouraging. However, going downhill has been rough and I need to spend more time practicing that.
