DevilsTurn will be launching at 0515 on Thursday from the traditional 4 Mile Creek Greenway parking area on Bevington & Rea Rd. We will be headed to the South Charlotte Middle School track and back.
20-40min Threshold run – Threshold pace is defined as “Comfortably Hard”. Find yours here at the Pace Calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator (instructions for the calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator/instructions/).
Suggestion – warm-up 2+ miles to South Charlotte Middle School track. Do some strides if needed. Begin Threshold Pace run and hold it for 20 minutes or hold it longer to get back to COT at 0610.
Alternative – do 3 to 4×1 mile at Threshold pace with 1 min rest in between.
The Overall Objective – We are taking on a 6 week 5K/10K training schedule that targets the Joe Davis Run. The only difference between our 5K and 10K training will be the number of sets / repeats recommended. All training is done at your personal pace that should be based on any recent race entered into the Pace Calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator (instructions for the calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator/instructions/).
You will find the complete Training Plans at the link http://goo.gl/0rSSfQ and YHC can explain them more tomorrow morning during 2nd F warmup/cooldown/COT. On the tab “5K (Daniels reduced)” there is a plan that you can use if you are a Beginner to Intermediate runner and just targeting the 5K. If you are an Intermediate to Advanced runner targeting the 10K or 5K, follow the schedule on tab “5K to 15K (Daniels)” that will take you through Joe Davis run and on to the Spring Mud Run. Save the spreadsheet, download it, whatever, use it as your own.

With the Joe Davis Run 10K/5K (http://f3nation.com/2014/10/17/2015-joe-davis-memorial-run-preblast-registration/) on the horizon on 1/10/15, we’ll be starting a specific training plan to take us through the 10K/5K and on to the Spring Mud Run. More information to be shared later, but the focus of Swift of the next several months will be shorter VO2 max intervals with adequate recovery. Time for building strength, aerobic capacity, and plenty of shared pain mixed with the 2nd F.
No matter if the temps are 0 or 50, we’ll be out there pushing ourselves!
