Tiger Summer Training Plan
*Practices start at 7:00 am when we meet as a group. I will be at practices on <em>Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays</em>
Directions:
Monday Long Runs - your goal is for your long runs to be 8 - 10 miles. You will want to run these at between 7:30 and 9:00 minute pace. In the next 6 to 8 weeks you will be building up to this goal. To start we will be building time at the park - after moratorium week we will run specific routes and measured distance to see where you are for the long run.
Tuesday Intervals - we will focus on long intervals and cut down after regular season practices start.
Wednesday and Fridays - Easy Run days....days built in for recovery - these need to be relaxed and truly easy - run comfortable.
Thursdays - Benchmark runs - will explain these when we meet first week.
Saturday Tempo Runs - thr first 1 1/2 mile of the distance is for warm-up, then you run goal race pace for the middle distance (which will start at 1 mile and build to 4 miles), then you run the last 1 1/2 miles as a cool down to complete the total required.
