full volume

Week 7, full volume is here. Continue to adjust paces for heat and humidity, and two aerobic threshold runs (aka Ae T or easy tempo) for both Tue and Fri.  The rest of your running for the week remains easy, 60-65%.  Thursday is an important day, whether 6-8 x 60-80m hill sprints or fast strides, don't neglect this day.

Simple, but not easy.  Stay the course, be patient.

Reminder, in preparation for the next phase of training, look for an approximately 200m long hill, on the order of Tech Parkway.  Not too steep to change running form.  Just a gradual rise to work against gravity.

Reminder of important dates...
