summer running

We still have several who have not done this, so please TEXT US YOUR THOUGHTS FOR FULL VOLUME WEEKLY MILEAGE FOR NEXT YEAR.

For those of you that have and are on the training schedule, week two should look like 4-6 light runs totaling 50% of your full volume week.  Add some short hill repeats or strides on Thursday.

Reminder...first, increase the frequency of running... second, increase the duration of runs... and third, increase the intensity of runs.  So early on, run more often.  Run twice a day more often.  Then, increase the durations of those runs.  Continue with stretching, foam-rolling, mobility, leg swings, etc.

As we get into the summer months, don't be afraid of the heat and humidity.  Just slow down and run easy.  Adjust pace up to 30-45 seconds per mile slower than normal pace.

0 miles but 3 hours on the elliptical last week. Not really sure what is going on but it is almost 6 weeks post scan and femur is still giving me some soreness which is sad so I might have to scale back on the cross training rip
