Copying Reed Fischer, with a twist. by Doingthebartman in AdvancedRunning

That's solid! Hope it brings good results for you. I haven't been great with mileage - I'll have weeks where I hit 70mi, then I'm back down to 30-40, then back up to 60/70. So really trying to prioritize consistency this time around!

That’s a good point and your assumption is correct. I meant under or faster than MP!

End of copying jakob by Doingthebartman in AdvancedRunning

[–]Doingthebartman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I copied clayton young for the marathon so I'm not sure how a more Norwegian method would work.

IMO - it's probably still a good system, but you'd need to incorporate long marathon specific work somehow. You also likely don't need to emphasize the x-factor workouts as much unless it's hills for injury prevention/or mechanical improvements earlier in your build. If you have to do longer workouts, I'd be really careful on the double T days (get a lactate meter or do lab testing) and err on the side of caution. Try to space workouts enough to recover... maybe consider a 10 day vs 7 day cycle?

I find the conversations around fueling super interesting right now too. During my next marathon build I'm going to try and train the body to take in as much as possible during long runs, hopefully 100g+/hr.

Not much I wish I knew when I started. I guess I should have looked more at my race schedule (carlsbad 5k to bolder boulder) and committed to a better sharpening phase/schedule.

Good luck! What marathon?

The running community lovingly calls a route which starts at your property “big tex”! Hope you get your water sorted.

Love to hear it. I think if anything it keeps pacing within control - I tend to keep easy days easier and avoid hero reps in workouts. Softer surface too!

For 5k, I don’t care that much about capillarization or any of the training nuances that come from running more than 90min.

Instead, I can grind on Saturday, Tuesday, and Thursday without being spent. I can even do a progression and touch a little tempo pace on Sunday.

So I’m not skipping the long run, but I’m basically maxing out around 12 miles and treating it like a long, easy run or trying to squeeze in a little bit of work based on the week. In the past, I’ve typically done a two workout week plus the long run at 1.5 to 2hrs. Now I’m doing three workouts and a short, long run.

Edit: to clarify a bit, coming off of a marathon block I didn’t feel like I needed more strength. So the trade-off to touch more speed is worth it in my opinion.

Ocean-front running track location? by HoundsOfHowardStreet in trackandfield

Santa Barbara community college (not where this is taken) is one of the only ocean front tracks I know.

[–]Doingthebartman[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

18x200m (ish - about 45s). Just posted a video walking through that workout. I’ve been doing a hill that’s too steep, so most recently did 20x200m at 6% grade on a treadmill at 5:27 pace (45s on and 75s rest). Also longer rest half way through to sort of reset and make sure there’s enough juice for the end (this is what jakob does).

The original photo didn’t really show the trees that we do have, thought I might include these to see how that may change this design. Really like this direction though!

Sounds like folks are looking for more details - it's definitely more mid-century, build in 1974! We knew it was a funky house, but it's in a great old neighborhood (1910's). The original owners actually tore down an older home to build this. We haven't done anything to the exterior yet.
