HURLEY HALF-MARATHON Codes

Aerobic Intervals (AI): You push the pace. But just a little. Find a tempo that feels somewhere between comfortable and "Hey, I'm workin' a little here." Don't run this too hard. Trying to add too much intensity while you're also increasing mileage spells I-N-J-U-R-Y. When you finish the timed AI, jog very slowly until your breathing returns to normal, then work back into your regular pace. On all other days, just run your assigned miles as you feel.

Gentle Pickups (GP): At the end of your run, walk for several minutes, then slowly increase your leg turnover on a flat stretch for 100 meters--the straightaway on a track--up to the point where you start to breathe hard. Hold it there for 10 to 20 meters, then gradually slow down. Walk to full recovery before you start the next one. The purpose of both AI and GP is to improve your stamina, leg speed, running efficiency, and to make your normal pace feel more comfortable. What's more, this kind of up-tempo running adds

 variety to your training. Always a good thing.

 

ASHLAND MARAHTON Codes (Post Hurley)

Goal Pace (GP): Your per-mile goal marathon pace.

Tempo Runs (T): For 11-minute Marathon Goal Pace (MGP) (4:48:25), run 10:28 (1 mile); for 10-minute MGP (4:22:12), run 9:31; for 9-minute MGP (3:55:58), run 8:34. Recovery is slow jogging for the number of minutes in parentheses.

Cruise Intervals (C): For 11-minute MGP, run 9:56 (1 mile), 7:49 (1,200); for 10-minute MGP, run 9:02 and 6:47; for 9-minute MGP, run 8:07 and 6:06. Recovery is half the distance of the repetition.

Speed Intervals (SI): For 11-minute MGP, run 4:52 (800), 2:26 (400); for 10-minute MGP, run 4:17, 2:08; for 9-minute MGP, run 3:50, 1:55. Recovery is equal distance (e.g., 400 jog for 400 repeats).

Total Uphill Time (TUT): The total number of minutes you spend running semi-vigorously up inclines-- repeats up the same hill or total uphill time over a hilly loop.

Warmup/Cooldown: Run 15 minutes easy followed by 4x100m strides before each Tuesday/Thursday session and 15 minutes easy at the end.

Strides (S): Gradual, smooth accelerations over 100 meters (straightaway on a track), running fast and controlled over the middle third--but NEVER SPRINTING--then just as gradually decelerating. Walk to full recovery after each.

 

Race Day Rules: "Go 10 to even 15 seconds per mile slower than your goal pace for the first 5?8 miles," counsels coach Bob Williams. You will see a big payoff later. When things start to get interesting, say at 18 to 20 miles, youÕll have some gas in the tank.
