M2T W1

Well, here we go again!  Week 1 of Marathon Training.  I was able to reapply my Break 4:00 Marathon Plan in TrainingPeaks.  I don't know that it's physically possible for ME to break 4 hours, but I really did like this plan ~ the speed drills, tempo runs, marathon pacing and long runs, so I'm doing it again.  I'll include their comments at the beginning of each week.

Your training kicks off with a day of rest. This week includes three easy, short runs; one run on hills; and two days of rest. On Saturday, your first long, slow distance (LSD) run will be 10 miles.

If you want to add miles, do it on an easy day. But don't extend any run by more than one or two miles, or add miles on Friday (the day before your long run).

Sunday:  Rest Day
Monday: 4 Miles Easy (pace 10:04)
Tuesday:  4 Miles Hills (no planned pace)
Wednesday:  Rest Day
Thursday: 4 Miles Easy (pace 10:04)
Friday:  4 Miles Easy (pace 10:04)
Saturday:  10 Miles LSD (pace 10:04-11:04)
