ParticipantTwo races that I would strongly recommend everyone to race. There is nothing like a race to assess progress and really come out of your comfort zone.
10miler in the Phoenix Park on Saturday 23rd August and
Half Marathon in the Phoenix Park on Saturday 20th September/Charleville Half Marathon Sunday 21st SeptemberI hope everyone that can and want to get tested will get it done asap.
If you know your max heart rate or have been tested this is the zones that we will be working off of.Aerobic Recovery and Long run is hr of low zone <68%
Aerobic Development 69-83%
Threshold Running 84-94% (this is a critical zone that you know individually as the bulk of the workouts will be done at this zone)
The odd session or part of session will be done at lactate Threshold above 95%. This will be mostly some fast sprint work or short duration stuff…..For those not getting a VO2max test or have not gotten one yet these are the paces that you can work off of:
Aerobic rec/Long run Threshold
4hour marathon group: 6.20-6.30 per km 5.20
3.30 : 5.40-5.50 4.45
3.15 : 5.10-5.20 4.20
3 : 5.05-5.15 4.152nd August 2014 at 1:02 pm #2134darraghk
