"It's just that I feel very comfortable at 6-minute pace," he says. "Much slower than that and I feel like I am working and breathing harder, and I begin to lose form and rhythm in my running."

updating through the day.


note to self:
- consistency consistency .. consistency.
- stop being a pussy.

goals:

- wakeup @ 6 AM
- improve:
-- 100m
-- 200m
-- 400m
-- 1 KM
-- 12 minute test
-- 5 KM
-- L-SLRVJ
-- half squat, half RDL, calf raises, BW upper

potential run protocols:
- always warmup great
- light stretching after
- paced runs: pick a pace and hold it 100%
- burnouts: pick a pace, try and maintain pace for as long as possible -> measure distance maintained
- 12-minute test
- 200, 400m, 1km, 1 mile repeats
- from salazar workouts slide:
-- 6 x mile repeats with 400m jog recovery
-- 20 x 200m, with or without jog recovery

future contests:

- 10/09/2016: would need to run ~18:30 5k to win
- 11/24/2016: would need to run ~16:30 5k to win
- 12/14/2016: would need to run ~4:40 mile (holiday 1-mile race) to win

Session: Evening

7:30 PM

warmup: run to court

jumps: submax
- L-SLRVJ mostly 10'4-10'5, had a few 10'6"s and potentially one 10'7" which was ridiculous
-- the ~10'7" was done with a "~sub 5 min/mi run runup": meaning, I basically used my more powerful run form during the runup from a further distance, instead of my normal runup.. felt good.. tried it again after and was too tight - jump sucked.
- R-SLRVJ: light backboard taps
- ~15x each
- jumps felt amazing

~400m repeats:
- 4 @ ~5 min/mi pace
- ~400m sub 10 min/mi jog recovery between each

a few light sprints:
- 3 @ ~80%
- felt good but "slow"
- ~16 mph max



Food

9 PM

Galloway's Book on Running (1984) has a chart called "Adjusting race pace for heat".
Estimated temperature at finish...Slower than goal pace
55-60 degrees.....1%
60-65 degrees.....3%
65-70 degrees.....5%
70-75 degrees.....7%
75-80 degrees.....12%
80-85 degrees.....20%
above 85.....forget it, run for fun

He attaches a note: "This chart is based upon my own experience in the heat and talking to other runners. It has no scientific verification, but I think you get the general idea."

Let's say your athlete has previously turned in a 3:00 marathon in cool temperatures (40 degrees F). Today's race day dawns with a WBGT temperature of 60 degrees F (15 C). Based on this research, it's reasonable to anticipate they'll be about 6% slower than they would be at around 40F. If you do the math for your 3:00 marathoner, you'll find it changes the anticipated finish time to about a 3:10. Pace per mile should be adjusted from the "planned" 6:52 to a more realistic 7:17. Failure to take the environmental conditions into account will likely come with a penalty later in the race!

http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/11/03/phys-ed-will-training-in-the-heat-improve-your-performance/?_r=0

The cyclists who were heat acclimated performed anywhere from 4 to 8 percent better than they had before they trained in the heat, while the control group did not improve at all.
