This is the
marathon week, so I planned a few of tapering, eliminating the Saturday session
educing miles of all other sessions (-20-30%). But rhythms will be
unchanged.
These are the
first workouts of the week:
Monday rest
Tuesday, in
program: a medium run. I still renounce to my usual workouts at anaerobic limit
and chose again a marathon pace, which I perhaps too optimistically set at 4'15''/km,
which would mean finishing under 3 hours! Due
to tapering, training should not last long, up to 45’, which is roughly 5 laps
of my measured road track. Mindful of the not easy workout of last Friday and of
the hip problem that has left me, I begin a little afraid. I run relaxed and
try to stay at an easy pace. At
the first look at clock, after 300 meters, I see that the frequency is already
up and this is a first good sign. I
pass the first mark at the pace I wanted to keep, just under 4'15 '', a second
good sign. So
in short, today the run is easy and I can keep the marathon pace without going into
trouble (while last Friday I suffered running 10'' slower respect to marathon
pace). Laps pass quickly, all under 4'15'' and after 45' I feel I could even keep
on if I wish or even accelerate. This has been a good workout!
Confidence
rises again, although there are still many doubts.
Wednesday, in
plane a slow run at 136 bpm. Today,
however, I’m less fresh and I make a neither bad nor good workout, in sense that at
planned beats I haven’t a neither bad nor brilliant pace.
Overall, I stay
out 1h15', including heating.
Until Sunday, I will train only once, on Friday, when I will make a very easy and even brief run.
