Marathon Blog - week 15

Week 15:  12/04/10 - 18/04/10

 

Week 15 and in the last couple of days I have tried to rest as much as possible with the big day fast approaching. After another incredibly uncomfortable sports massage my legs are starting to feel like they have enough energy to get around the course. I start carb loading next week and maybe a couple of light runs to keep the joints moving. My weekly training schedule looked as below:

Monday – Upper body gym workout

Tuesday – 7k light run

Wednesday – 5.3 Mile run at 9.3 minute mile pace

Thursday – Rest day/ Massage

Friday – 20 mins swim

Saturday – 4.8 miles at 8.5 min mile pace

Sunday – Rest day

Marathon blog week 14

Week 14:  05/04/10 - 11/04/10

 

Week 14 and the legs are starting to feel tired so we had an extra rest day Monday even thought he run on Sunday wasn’t a long one. I managed to get a sports massage in this week and to say it was uncomfortable would be an understatement but I know it was well needed. We had our charity fundraiser on Friday and the Marathon run has all of a sudden become very real but I am also really looking forward to the big day now. My weekly training schedule looked as below:

Monday – Rest Day

Tuesday – 6.82 Mile run at 7.56 min mile pace

Wednesday – Kettle bell and Full body barbell workout

Thursday – 2.7 miles at 9.5 minute mile pace/ Massage

Friday – Upper body workout

Saturday – Rest

Sunday – 11.59mile run at 8.97 min mile pace
