Goals: 4:00 1500, 1:57 800, 8:40 3k
Outline of what I’m planning
Get to peak mileage (50-60 miles) then
8 weeks of base phase. 2 week cycle of 2 workouts per week. One 10k paced workout, 2 LT paced workout, one marathon paced tempo/progression down to LT
Hill sprints and strides/drills included on a regular basis
Mon mileage
Tues tempo
Wed mileage
Thurs mileage +hill sprints
Fri LT workout
Sat mileage
Sun Long run (12ish miles)
Mon mileage
Tues 10k paced workout
Wed medium long run
Thurs Mileage
Fri LT workout
Sat mileage
Sun Long run
Then another 8 week block adding in 800-5k paced work. Again in two week blocks
Tues LT session
Fri 800-1500 pace session
Sun long run
Tuesday 10k-8k pace session
Friday 5k pace session
Sunday long run
Final 8 week block building the volume of the race specific work.
Tuesday 10k pace session
Friday 800-1500 session
Sunday long run
Tuesday 5k-3k pace session
Friday 1500 pace session
Sunday long run.
Obviously there will be some week to week variations, but for the most part planning to look along those lines. Might do a third workout a week of just sprint sessions every now and then.
Anything I’m missing?
Events in order of importance are 1500-3000-800.
Biggest sessions I’m planning on hitting during the last 8 weeks are 15x200 @800 pace (1:00 rest) 16x400 @1500 pace (1:00 rest) 3x800 or 1k @1500 pace (6:00-8:00 rest) and 2k @just slower than 3k pace, 1k @ just slower than 1500 pace, 600@1500 pace
advice is much appreciated
