So here is the running schedule I have set for myself so far for April.
Note: This schedule is going off what I did in 2011 to get prepared for it.
2 miles - April 9th
3 miles - April 11th
5 miles - April 13th or 14th
5 miles - April 16th
2 miles - April 18th
6.2 miles - April 20th (Race Day *Run the River 10k*)
4 miles - April 23rd
5 miles - April 25th
3.1 miles - April 27th (Race Day *Finish on the 50 5k*)
4 miles - April 30th
I will sort of be going off of this. I may had more miles to it if I am feeling great out on the run. I may even run twice a day. It will all depend on how I am feeling.
Oh, and I will also be lifting weights at the gym and doing other exercises for my legs on the days I am not running.
I am excited about July. Only 12 or 13 weeks until it. :)
Good luck with your two races coming up this month!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am excited yet nervous at the same time. I know I will do fine though! :)
DeleteApril looks great! I'm excited for my training and hope the longer runs will help the speed on my shorter runs. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. It should help you. I was looking at my runs from when I did this kind of schedule and I can definitely see a big difference in my pace. Keep it up!
