Starting June 4 we will want to be as consistent as possible with our training. Mileage will be higher later in the summer(60+ for returning women/70+ for returning men). For now, it is important to run every day with a day off once in a while to recover & cross train or to rest because of illness or injury.
For the week starting Sunday, June 4:
This is an introductory training week. Pace can be easy. Returning women should now be running an average of 6 miles a day or more, with a long run sometime during the week of 60 minutes or longer. Try to get 40+ miles this week. Returning men should be running an average of at least 7 miles a day with a long run of 70 minutes. Try to get 50+ miles this week.
Freshmen girls can average about 5 miles a day with one long run around 7-8 miles. Freshmen guys can average 6 miles a day with a long run of at least 8-9 miles.
Next week we will add strength work and a few more miles and think about training goals for the summer.
