so here's the plan, up my cals, try to stick to 50%carb, 30%protein and 20 fat.
Monday - weights followed by 30minutes of running in the stinking heat, followed by a dip in the pool.
Tuesday - 1hr easy run, 1hr HIIT
Wednesday - full body weights
Thursday - 1 hr sprint runs, 1hr fitball class
Friday - weights followed by 30minutes of running in the stinking heat.
Saturday - 20km/2hr run
Sunday - 30min walk, 30min yoga
the week before the race i will cut out the weights, and one of the sessions on 2 workout days, on the saturday i will walk the run circuit, on the sunday i will do the race. I will also carb load in the week leading up to the race.
how does that sound?? I have been running for a few years but only for about an hour at a time. over an hour i usually cover 12 - 13km, It takes me 2hrs to do 20km. This is new to me, i am not into endurance and after this, i may never do it again...we'll see...
any thoughts, help, ideas would be greatly appreciated
