Thursday Training Plan: 8 Weeks to a FASTER 10k
This programme is one of my staples and works great for pure runners and triathletes racing both sprint and olympic distance. It has been designed for people who run between 35 and 50 minutes currently for 10km and really puts some spark in your legs over the next 8 weeks. To follow this programme effectively I highly recommend some sort of GPS watch like a Garmin and I’ve also included power based workouts if you’ve paired your Garmin with a running power meter like a Stryd.

Friday Fartlek Run: Steady Plus 90min
Race pace for events longer than half marathon distance for most athletes aren’t run at threshold pace but instead a touch lower with large portions of the event done at Level III. It’s important to expose the body to training at this level of intensity. This is a great workout for someone training for a half to full marathon (whether part of an Ironman or 70.3).

This morning's park run - around 500m from the turnaround at 2.5km.

Motivation yay! Got my legs moving and knocked off the long run scheduled for today. My legs felt a little sore from Friday's gym session and yesterday's fast run, however once I got going I forgot how they felt I did give a thought to those doing the half marathon at Wellington this morning. Perhaps next year I might give that one a go. In the meantime I plan to do the half organised by @manawatustriders in May. I understand it will be a new course so that will be interesting. After all the warm weather we've had the breeze - 17 hours ago
What felt a little uncomfortable three weeks ago is starting to feel comfortable and I needed to slow down a few times. Occasionally I've been dressed ready to run and I've struggled to actually go outside the gate and head down the street. I don't know what that's about & I have overcome it by driving somewhere to start my run. Today was almost one of those days, however I overcame the mind games and ran from home. Silly me! This image was taken alongside the river. At this point I would normally be running up on the stop bank - 4 days ago
Huffing & puffing my way across the park run finish line this morning. Pleased to see my time is gradually coming back down, most likely a result of more consistency in both my run and strength training. . . #run #runner #running #runtraining #training #trainingsession #athlete former #triathlete #duathlete #keepinghealthy #keepingfit #fitover60 #oldandfit #maturerunner #womenrunners #consistency #consistencyisthekey #qwikkiwi #instagram #instarunner #runnersofinstagram #parkrun #parkrunnz #selfbelief - 5 days ago
I included the new pathway around Queen Elizabeth Park Lake in my run this morning. It is nice and wide which will be great for pushchairs and wheelchairs. There is plenty of seating with picnic tables too. The area has had a real good tidy up and looks much better for it. As for my run, it went well as I focused on maximising time in my endurance pace zone. . . . #runningterritory #parklake #queenelizabethpark #run #runner #running #runtraining #training #trainingsession #athlete former #triathlete #duathlete #keepinghealthy #keepingfit #fitover60 #oldandfit #maturerunner #womenrunners #consistency #consistencyisthekey #qwikkiwi #instagram #instarunner #runnersofinstagram #selfbelief #runbythelake
Ironman Swim PB
I’ve taken my most popular training plan and given it a make over for 2020. I’ve taken the 12 Weeks to an Ironman Swim PB – Swim Faster with Smarter Training and I’ve modified to to expand the programme from 12 weeks and include an option for more than 3 swims per week.
Now the programme has created some great times for athletes competing at Ironman events around the world, but it was overly set in stone. Now if you have got between 8 & 24 weeks to an Ironman and are consistently swimming 3x, 4x or 5x per week, I’ve created an option for you. This is regardless of the length of pool 25m, 33⅓yd or 50m pool.
