To my mind, Joe has a very good program. <BR/><BR/>8 weeks of "base training"<BR/>8 weeks of event specific work.<BR/>2-3 week taper.<BR/><BR/>Base training usually sees <BR/><BR/>M: Base run<BR/>T: Base run + short hills or intervals--just get in touch w/wheels<BR/>w: Med long run, EZ<BR/>R: EZ/Rec<BR/>F: Long slow tempo or faster tempo intervals.<BR/>SA: EZ<BR/>SU: EZ long run.<BR/><BR/>8 weeks event specific.<BR/><BR/>Same as base, but you increase your mileage by 10-15%, T: Do long VO2 intervals, F: Hard, hard tempo. Increase LR and mid-week run.<BR/><BR/>Like I said, I think this is a solid, solid plan. You always can email Joe directly; if he has time, he'll be happy to reply.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21893989.post-72386985590008535932008-05-07T10:19:00.000-07:002008-05-07T10:19:00.000-07:00Hey Greg, I was going to shoot you an email but co...Hey Greg, I was going to shoot you an email but couldn't find your address...send me one if you get a minute.
