Running Workouts for the week:
This is what we have coming up:
- July 27th- Cycling TT #2
- July 29th- H+P 2023 Trackfest
Reminder of the plan:
The time to specifically build for the fall has come! As always, modify these workouts for what works best for you and your goals- add or take away volume as needed. BUT, generally, we will be targeting an early October peak which is 16 weeks away.
The first part of this 16-week build will be a 6-week block where we slowly start to add more volume and include more tempos. This is where we will also start to deviate into HM-M focused workouts vs. 5K-HM focused workouts. At the end of these 6-weeks, we get a nice little fitness test in the form of TRACKFEST!
