new phase and back to school v.2016

A lot going this week, but make sure you get the medical paperwork and the compliance forms done before Thursday of this week.  The medical forms should be completed and emailed in and the compliance forms are done online.  If you are unsure about anything, text or call one of your coaches asap.

We will have our compliance meeting on Friday at 3:30 PM ... the location is still not set so look for notification later this week.  After the compliance meeting we will have our start of the year team meeting, then dinner to follow.

Physicals will be on Sunday morning, you should have received notification about where and when you need to report.  If not, find out!  Freshmen have an athletic academic orientation on Sunday afternoon.

Plan on doing your long run on Saturday.  Just switch the mileage for Saturday and Sunday.  Count your weekly mileage with what you actually run on each day, so this week will be higher than scheduled due to the long run being on Saturday.

The aerobic long specificity phase starts this week, meaning efforts will begin to get longer and recovery will get shorter later in the phase.  For this week, just a couple of good, strong aerobic efforts.

Lastly, make sure you reach out if you have any questions!

Workouts for this week:

Tue: 3-5 x 5' @ about 80-85% with equal time recovery at about 65%
Fri: 5' + 4' + 3' + 2' + 1' @ about 85% with equal time recovery at about 65%

25 miles. My remaining mileage was done on the bike because I was having some quality left shin pain. But after some biking, ice and my swag compression sleeve, it's feeling a lot better. Can't wait to finish my internship and see everyone this weekend!

50 miles. Took some mileage off on Wednesday because of some shin pain that won't seem to go away, But after a week with new shoes, and two weeks with icing and stretching I think it's finally getting better.

69 and 64 miles. The paces and efforts still don't quite match up the way I'd like, but I know that will come. Missed a few miles due to some some slight achilles and knee pain, both of which will dissipate as soon as I get new shoes
