Boston Training - 'Week Two' Write-Up And 'Week Three' Look-Ahead

This week was a weird one:

  • Last weekend's snowstorm threw off my Sunday run, which I ended up doing on a treadmill (yuck)
  • Thursday's '15km' run ended up as the Runners' Shop's annual carol run - a very gentle 6km interspersed with mutilations of popular carols
  • I had to skip yesterday's run as I was stuck in a car heading out of the city.

Running Log: Week Two

All told, I managed about 42km. Compared to my schedule:

Day Scheduled Run Actual Run
Sunday 18km comfortable Rest
Monday Rest 18km steady
Tuesday 15km comfortable 17km comfortable
Wednesday Rest Rest
Thursday 15km steady 6km slooooow
Friday Rest Rest
Saturday 12km recovery Rest
Total 60km week 42km week


I plan on making up the missed 12km run tomorrow if the weather doesn't turn - we're forecast snow squalls throughout the day.

Training Program: Week Three

Day Scheduled Run
Sunday 22km steady
Monday (12km recovery)
Tuesday 15km comfortable
Wednesday Rest
Thursday 15km comfortable
Friday Rest
Saturday 12km recovery
Total 76km week
