starting to feel the effects on running on hard sand joints are sore heading to track from now on.

training for 60m this december is there anything else i should include in my training?
also next year im training for the 100m what sort of distance should i be running for speed endurance? 80m?
Hello Runningfaster. I was just checking out your log. What is your rationale for organizing your training? Also sorry if I missed it but what are you doing for restoration work? Extensive tempos etc?
hey matt i dont do tempo work at all atm what would you suggest?
i’m usually pretty sore(legs) from training and recover after about 3days of no sprint work
You might like to cut the 60’s down to 3 with 10 mins recovery, and the 30’s down to 6 with 5 mins recovery.Then on the alternate days you could do 10 x 100m tempo at 75% intensity or LESS.
sounds good grooster so program will look like this…
monday
3x60m
wednesday
tempo 10x 100 75%
friday
flying 30’sx6
is that enough for now or should i do more???
btw i’m a beginner in term of sprint training so any advice is much appreciated
cheers michael
You could do the tempo runs on tuesday and saturday and do weights after the speed sessions,maybe bench ,squats ,seated row, begin with 2-3 work sets of 10 reps
Tempo runs are used to increase aerobic capacity, usually HR 14-160 from what I understand and they also have a restorative nature. By this I mean that they help facilitate recovery from the previous high intensity stressors. Are you just planning on training mon/wed/fri. How are you incorporating your strength and explosive training into this?
Sorry for the questions I’m just interested
thats okay Matt im glad people are explaining these things to me, i havent planned any strength or explosive training in yet as im out of shape atm maybe incorporate them as i slowly progress???
today 100’sx4 100%
today
tempo 100x9 75%-100%
