After thinking about it, I have outlined a marathon plan. I want a system that includes hard work, but isn't over the top. I want to get some miles in, but I need to have decent rest. I want to race a bit and have fun, but not taper for those. I want to get some long running in, but not enough to always wear me out. I want to have some flexibility, so I can run with friends occasionally. I want to incorporate speed, but not over the top. Here is the draft:
Monday: 4-6 easy
Tuesday: 800m repeats
Wednesday: 9-11 moderate
Thursday: 4-6 easy
Friday: 9-11 moderate
Saturday: Long run, race, or MP run
Sunday: Off or 4-6 easy
I may switch Thursday/Friday around at times and probably other days as well. This will probably net out to a range of 50-70 a week. I kicked off today with 14.0 at moderate pace averaging 7:53. I'll probably be shot tomorrow, but sometimes it shakes things loose.
