" What was the secret?  They wanted to know, in a thousand different ways they wanted to know THE SECRET.  And not one of them was prepared, truly prepared to believe that it had not so much to do with chemicals and zippy mental tricks as with that most unprofound and sometimes heart rending process of removing, molecule by molecule, the very tough rubber that comprised the bottom of his running shoes. The Trial of Miles, Miles of Trials, how could they be expected to understand that?"

June 18-July 12 Workouts



ITEMS OF IMPORTANCE
1.       Remember to e-mail your workout logs by each Sunday to:  rbuhrley@dsdmail.net
If you don=t have access to e-mail, just bring a copy of your workout log to the Monday practices.
2.       The workouts listed are for those who have been following the first three weeks of workouts as handed out in May.  If you are just starting up now, follow the original (first three weeks) of the workout schedule.  They can be found at: www.titanxc2011.blogspot.com.
3.       IT IS IMPORTANT TO COMPLETE THE WORKOUTS AS LISTED AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE.
4.       Following a regular lifting/strength training program can greatly enhance your success in the fall.
5.       DON=T NEGLECT THE AB=S.  Pillars and crunches are easy to do while watching TV, reading, etc.
6.       The Syracuse High Altitude Running Camp will be held July 30th to August 3rd at Marsh Lake in the Uintahs.  The $50 deposit and initial permission slip is due July 12th.  The remainder of the $75-125 fee plus waiver and either a Physical AA@ or AB@ Form is due on July 26th.
7.       Workout and other information can be found at: www.titanxc2011.blogspot.com.
8.       If you have questions concerning your workouts contact:  (775-0122 or rbuhrley@dsdmail.net), or (589-9949 or rwilcox@dsdmail.net) or (499-1487 or nutone993@aol.com).  

WORKOUT TERMS USED
TR= Training Run - This just means running at a fairly constant pace.  They should be somewhat challenging, but not leave you wheezing, gasping, etc.  Generally your heartrate should reach the 160-180 range during these runs.  (It may be higher if it is hot.)  These are your longest runs in terms of distance.
FR= Fartlek Run - This literally means "speed play".  It this type of workout you should vary your pace, terrain, etc.  When done properly, it is as hard of a workout as you will have.  Hilly trails, parks, etc. are good places for these workouts, although the roads will do.
TemR= Tempo Run - This is a shorter run at a faster pace.  Check Table 3.2 for you AT@ Pace. Your heartrate should get up into the 180-200 range for these workouts.
TrR= Trail Run - Use a variety of terrain, but be careful- watch out for turned ankles, rattlesnakes, etc.  The pace should be about the same as your Training Runs.
Strides= 5-6 x 20-30 second runs at Afast and relaxed@ pace using quick turnover.  Concentrate on good running form.  DO NOT SPRINT.
Two-a-Days= Some workouts have mileage listed in [brackets].  This is a suggested change from the original workout if you want to have two workouts a day.  Don=t attempt them unless you are able to still keep up with the regular workouts.  Let your body be the guide.
There are three workouts listed for each day.  The first one is for athletes who have at least one year of distance experience and are at a relatively high fitness level.  The second is for runners with some recent running/soccer background and a moderate fitness level.  The third workout listed is for those with little or no distance running background.  All of these workouts are for those who have completed the first three weeks of the training cycle.

Friday, May 25, 2012

May 28 - June 19, 2012 Workouts

There are three workouts listed for each day.  The first is for athletes who have at least one year of distance experience and are at a relatively high fitness level.  The second is for runners with some recent running/soccer background and a moderate fitness level.  The third workout listed is for those with little or no distance running background.

KEYS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR YOUR WORKOUTS
1.    Remember to e-mail your workout logs by each Sunday even if you are not completing the entire workout schedule as outlined.  Send them to: rbuhrley@dsdmail.net   Also record them on the google.docs site.
2.    Don't increase your mileage too rapidly.  Maximum increase should be no more than a 10% each week.
3.    Run on the softest surfaces available.  This will help prevent shin splints and is easier for your legs to recover for the next workout.  Grass is great, as are trails, etc.
4.    Change sides of the road when running in an area with little traffic and wide shoulders.  That helps equalize the stress on the "downhill" side of your legs.
5.    Be as consistent as possible in the time you run.  It is tough on the body to run a hard workout in the evening and then come back the next morning with another hard one.
6.    If you decide to run two-a-days, just go every other day.  In other words, three workouts in two days.  Check with a coach first if you are interested in two-a-days.
7.    Warm up and down properly.  Jog, stretch, and do some basic running mechanic drills for 10-15 minutes before and 5-10 after each workout.  This is especially true if the workout is an intense one.
8.    Use a variety of routes and terrain (trails are good).  Try not to run the same route every day.
9.    You can substitute time for distance.  A 5 mile TR becomes a 40 minute TR if that is your normal pace.
10.    Cross-train when you suspect an injury or when you feel “hammered”.  Biking, swimming, “power hiking” are good forms of cross training.  KEY: try to keep the heart rate up close to the same level as when you are running.
11.    25-30% of your weekly mileage should come from your long run (usually Saturday if not racing that day).
12.    Incorporate some strength training into your routine.  There are several things you can do to help your strength level without having access to a gym, i.e. running hills, pushups, crunches, pull-ups, lunges, step-ups, etc.
13.    Have good training shoes.  Quality shoes help prevent injuries.  Striders in Layton will give you a discount and are also very knowledgeable about helping you select the right shoe.
14.    Find someone close to the same running ability to work out with.  That helps keep you motivated.
15.    WATCH WHAT YOU EAT!  Cut out junk food.  Keep hydrated.  It will help prevent injuries.
16.    Recruit!!  Find people new to the sport- encourage them to come to the workouts.
17.    Contact us anytime if you have questions concerning your workouts.  (775-0122 or rbuhrley@dsdmail.net), or (589-9949 or rwilcox@dsdmail.net) or (499-1487 or nutone993@aol.com).
18.    Challenge yourself, have fun, and be careful!!!
NOTE: For this first set of workouts, plan on meeting at Jensen Park Monday mornings at 7:00 am and Fernwood Campground at 7:00 am (or 6:30 am at Syracuse High if you need a ride) every Thursday morning.   We may lift weights at the high school after the run when schedules permit.

The next set of workouts will be handed out MONDAY, June 19th at the regular Jensen Park Workout.  From then on, we will continue to meet two-three times per week as a TEAM.

WORKOUT TERMS USED
TR= Training Run - This just means running at a fairly constant pace (check out Tables 3.1 and 3.2 to see what your pace should be) which is not so hard it will have you wheezing, gasping, etc.  Generally your heartrate should reach the 160-180 range during these runs.  It may be higher if it is hot, includes hills, etc.  These are your longest runs in terms of distance.
FR= Fartlek Run - This literally means "speed play".  In this type of workout you should vary your pace, terrain, etc.  When done properly, it is as hard of a workout as you will have.  Hilly trails, parks, etc. are good places for these, although the roads will do.

TempR= Tempo Run - This is a shorter run at a very hard, constant pace.  Your heartrate should get up into the 180-200 range for these workouts.
TrR= Trail Run - Use a variety of terrain, and watch out for turned ankles, rattlesnakes, etc.
Strides= 5-6 x 20-30 second runs at “fast and relaxed” pace using a quick turnover.  Concentrate on relaxation and good running technique.  DO NOT SPRINT!!
INT= Interval Workout - These workouts consist of running set distances or times at a certain pace with a set recovery in between each.  The recovery phase may be passive (easy walk, stretch, etc.) or active (fast walk, jogging, etc.), depending on the intensity desired.  These should not be included more than once a week during this phase of your training.
