That is Monday, September 25, 2023.
That is a simple day or a restoration day.
I realized this from the late Arthur Lydiard, who drilled into me the necessity for simple days. I might break up my runs on simple days into two very relaxed runs. The 1968 Olympic US marathoner Ron Daws, a Lydriard apostle, was my savior. I learn his Self-Made Olympian (1972-RW Publications) and memorized his coaching plans.
As you start to race now, your simple days are at a quicker tempo than in mid-summer, so keep conscious and preserve it mellow. I recall early summer time at a 7-minute tempo and late summer time and fall 6 minutes on the lengthy runs, which was average.
Preserve it simple as we speak! We can have exercise tomorrow.
Your exercise as we speak: Heat-up, 45-55 minutes simple 6x150m stride-outs, cooldown
P.S. When Joe Mangan and I coached at Foothill School, our decathlete was quantity 5 in cross nation! Cross-country helps everybody!
