Speed work graph(s) + questions

What if you have a outdoor track could you do 2x240?

I think for outdoor training, splits runs like 100+100+100 would work well for phase I SE, progressing to full 300m in phase II.

You could do 2x(4x60) outdoors as well.

I think if you live in Texas or a southern state and have access to warm weather you should probably take advantage. I think you could follow CF S2L speed days with the L2S spec end 1 workouts. For example:

Mon:
4x30
4xEFE

Thur:
4x20
2x300 resting 7mins (moving down to 1x150 over 12 weeks)

Or - 3 hi days.

Mon: Speed
Wed: Spec 1 long runs
Fri: Spilt 60’s

Thoughts?

I thought that would be a good idea as well. Similar to what they do in the Caribbean pretty much.

That’s the plan this year!!

GPP 6 weeks: Focus 0-30m
Mon/Thur Speed 0-30m
Wed/Sat: Tempo

SPP 12 weeks:
Mon: Speed 0-60m
Thur: Accel+Spec 1 150-300 (100-200m of Accel+Speed) Ex: 2x20+2x30+1x60+250/200

Indoor Comp: 5 meets
Maintain SE, run 200 EOW or perform 1-2reps of SE in workouts.

Look forward to seeing how it works out. Hope you stay injury free.

Me too!! I seem to always run my fastest 60m outdoors, I really think the SE work helps my overall speed. Also by doing long SE earlier in the year it should allow me to run faster 100m times earlier in the season. Most guys I’m racing against have tons of SE under there belt at the start of outdoors because they come from L2S programs.

When I try to print my graphs I get a message on one of the pages “insufficent data for an image”
I am new to this and trying to help my teenage daughter, so I want every “image” I can get! :smiley:

I have tried an email to “info@charliefrancis.com”, same day as my post above, and no response…and none to my post either?
