XC Training: Weeks of June 17 & 24

XC Training for the weeks of June 17 & 24

For the next two weeks we will continue building our aerobic base with weekly mileage of at least 45-55 miles and one long run(> 70 minutes) each week. Pace can still be relatively easy on all runs.

One time during the week please add a set of hill repeats consisting of 6-8 uphills(150-200m) run moderately hard. Try to do those on the grass, if possible. Strength work can be as simple as 3 sets of pushup and crunches with the addition of pullups or curls with dumbbells.

Sunday(6/17 & 6/24) Long run of 10-12 miles

Monday 5-6 miles w/ strength training

Tuesday 8-10 miles

Wednesday 6 miles w/ hill repeats

Thursday 5-6 miles w/ strength training

Friday 7-9 miles

Saturday 4-6 miles or swim/bike
