You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: baconrecon Subject: RE: patellar tendonitis rehab Body: Dave, my opinion is that you should start track intervals now, but probably skip the high speed stuff, because you're going to need some 5 minute pace stuff to get down under 5 for a race soon. of course, you were a much better runner than I'll ever be, so take my advice with a grain of salt. but I started getting faster by running 4-6 mile tempos (weekly, often alternating with workouts like thursday's) and 400-2k intervals at 5k-10M pace usually. why not try some 3xmile, with a 400 jog, 5x800 with a 200-400 jog, 8x400 with a 200 jog? at first just target sub-6 minute pace for the repeat miles, sub-2:50 for the 800s, and sub-80 for the 400s. try beginning the track sessions with a jog to the track and an easy 3x200 at no faster than 40. if that stuff is easy, you can pick up the intervals, shorten the rests, and increase the number of reps. sair, looking forward to see what you can do in a race. your improvement from hs is extraordinary and those workouts you've done suggest you're going to run some very fine times this year.
