Sunday: W17, M2

Training: Rest

Notes:
Overall a pretty undisciplined week for workouts. Not a big deal as I treated the week as an active recovery week. On a positive note I was very pleased with my weighted vest run on Saturday. My cardiovascular fitness has drastically improved and I think the main thing to continue working on is my lower back, core and feet muscles and tendons as those will be what will take the majority of the beating. Change of shoes has REALLY helped my feet. Taking more rest days has been pretty difficult mentally because I am not used to taking more than 1 or 2 a week but I have seen great improvements in my running and the overall freshness of my legs when I take 3 days completely off.

Training:

4.2 mile run (easy pace)

Notes:
Long day and not much time to get a workout in. Squeezed this in before bed and it was pitch black outside on the path that I usually run due to tree coverage.

Will not get much training in the next 3 days as I will be out of town hunting.

Sunday: D7,W7

Training:

Endurance:
Run: 120 min

Notes:
Ran at a fast pace and had a friend on a bike to pace me for a large chunk of it. Felt rested and legs felt great. Part of this was due to the more than normal rest days I took this week. I was surprised that the run went so well due to my poor nutrition the past 5 days. I have never really tapered before and although this was accidental and unplanned it was great to see what extra rest can do.

4 weeks of my first base phase are complete. I am very happy with the progress I have made so far. The goal for these 4 weeks was to get myself better acclimated to running 20-30 miles per week and get used to at lease 1 long run a week (over 60 min for the time being). I have found that my cardiovascular and aerobic ability is fine and that what needs strengthening is my lower body (feet, tendons, achilles, calves ect). If I would not have hurt my foot last night I would have considered this first phase a complete success, however, injuries do occur and this is minor so I feel fortunate. The next phase going forward is going to be a building phase and I am planning on using the next 4 weeks to slowly increase mileage and add in 3 intense lower body sessions geared towards muscular endurance. The rest of the week will be focused on core and flexibility sessions with upper body calisthenics thrown in when time allows.

Focus needs to be on baby steps (which is always difficult for me) as I still have 18 months to train. Slowly build up a solid base of miles as well as lower body muscular endurance and let my body become acclimated to this workload.
