Back in January I mentioned different ideas for training for the 12K that I will run on May 1st. Even though in February I had planned on committing more time to running, especially outside, it was almost non-existent, especially with the conference week that threw me off a bit. The day to start training is quickly approaching and Monday will be my first actual run. Now that I have a better idea of my workout schedules and what will work, I decided to adapt ideas from Hal Higdon's 10K plan to accommodate some of my other workout preferences. I have realized that four workout days is ideal in order to still maintain some balance with other priorities (mainly family, school, and teaching, but also some hobbies).
Here is my plan:
Week 1:
Monday: 2.5 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Saturday or Sunday: 3 miles
Week 2:
Monday: 2.5 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Sunday: Virtual 5K + a little bit more = 3.5 miles
Week 3:
Monday: 2.5 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Saturday or Sunday: 4 miles
Week 4:
Monday: 3 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Saturday or Sunday: 4.5 miles
Week 5:
Monday: 3 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Saturday or Sunday: 5 miles
Week 6:
Monday: 3 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Saturday or Sunday: 5.5 miles
Week 7:
Monday: 3 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: Personal Training Session; Saturday or Sunday: 6 miles
Week 8:
Monday: 3 miles; Wednesday: Ab Lab/Zumba; Thursday: 2 miles + strength; Sunday: 12K
