Phase One Week Two
Today we begin pushing our ability to be on the feet for long periods of time. Endurance is only possible through experience, recounting times or periods that you have learned to pace correctly when and how to hydrate and eat, or when to stop to take care of hot spots or abrasions might take years to accurately develop. Today provides an opportunity to note the details. We have a 90-min run for this session. Try and run for as much of it as possible BUT, keep in mind that we are just getting started and pushing too hard on an early session may be detrimental in the long run. You should know how you feel from last week’s long run, perhaps try pushing past that mark by 10-15min and then treat the rest as a brisk walk. Or split up the running with walking intervals like run 10-min/ walk 5-min which would accomplish the same amount of a work in a very different way.
