Posted on May 12, 2018 by JT Running DC

I ran 400m repetitions on Monday and 1,200m intervals on Thursday. My “long” run today was only 9 miles. For cross training, I lifted weights three days this week. And, I had my first “normal” blood pressure reading in a

This week was all about adjusting. I started running regularly again and followed a schedule from Daniels’ Running Formula, which included two speed workouts. I also lifted weights for the first time in years. But, the biggest change was starting

The first week of my taper! I ran the final hard workouts of the training cycle this week – a long run on Sunday and an interval workout on Friday. I focused on running my recovery days legitimately easy. Training

It was a tough week! My schedule didn’t have any easy days but I created one by taking Thursday off. My time from the Shamrock Half Marathon on Sunday and interval workout on Friday were both good indicators that I’m

I only ran three workouts this week – an 8 mile general aerobic run on Monday, a 15 miler on Tuesday, and a 20 miler on Saturday. I missed my lactate threshold run on Thursday because I overslept. Not great

I completed all of my workouts despite going through the first week of a stressful bathroom remodeling project. I ran well but struggled towards the end of my long run on Saturday. I also had some worrisome pain in my

I took a week off after the San Diego 50 Miler and am now training for the 2018 Boston Marathon! After weeks of mostly slow running with frequent breaks, picking up the pace and going non-stop was exhausting! Training Schedule
