Training Plan - Phase 2

1 June 2014 to 5 July 2014 - Phase 2

Weekend long runs had got to 13 miles, little bit off target would have liked to have made it to the 15 miles point but it was a busy month and all sorts of things got in the way over the weekends, as a result my longer runs suffered on a couple of Sunday's, so although I managed to get runs in they were either flat or uphill and shorter,

Tuesday runs to work - intervals, starting off at .25 mile at 3k pace and 1.5 mile rest x 12. (Run/walk recovery run home)

Thursday runs to work - tempo, up to 4 miles at half marathon pace.(Run/walk recovery run home)

Saturday - Hill repeats x 10 seconds, 2 mins rest

Failed terribly at the intervals, struggled with my watch, then set the timer wrong so I was running .40 of a mile before resting, therefore completely blowing up, so still lacking confidence and need to pick up and nail them at my next phase,

Tempo runs were fine, tough and I was ready to stop at 4 miles but I was pretty consistent and confident nailing them.

Hill repeats went out of the window really - again busy weekends and I was lucky that I could fit in a long run.

Gym - totally went out of the window and I didn't go at all for the last 3 weeks, certainly need to reassess that.

Boot camp - started boot camp on a Wednesday night, managed to go a couple of times and really enjoyed it - plan  for next phase is to get there every week.

All in all, not as good as my first phase. Managed a couple of run/walks home. Although in my defence there was a lot going on!!
