  • To update my achilles has improved a lot.

    I'm now running four times a week, 20 miles overall. All the miles are at a really easy pace tempo/intervals.

    Tuesday - 3
    Wednesday 5 - intervals/tempo
    Friday - 4
    Sunday - 8

    I'd like to move to 5 days as this seems the best way to up my mileage to 25 then 30 a week. How does this sound to start (same mileage but spread around).

    Monday - 2
    Wednesday - 5 (intervals)
    Thursday - 2
    Friday - 3
    Sunday - 8

    The aim would be to move up to

    Monday - 3
    Wednesday -5 (intervals)
    Thursday - 3
    Friday - 4 (two miles tempo)
    Sunday - 10

    One or two of the the off days I'll be doing a kettlebell strength routine. How does this sound?

    Sorry for the long post.

  • Looks sensible mileage-wise, although you could be conservative with the quicker sessions, maybe stick with one quicker session per week whilst increasing mileage, and plateau for a couple of weeks to see how the achilles feels.

    MsPub's getting me some Endorphin Speed (edit... not Pro!) for an early Xmas pressie. Yay! I told her they would help to keep my foot niggles at bay. ;-)

  • Cheers! Yes, I’ll add in that last tempo session after getting to 25 and being there for a couple of weeks.
