Well, in prep for Yorkshireman in Sep, I think I have a tentative training plan. I'd like to get your comments on it.
- Maintain a 40-50 mile/week base incl 1 long, longest being 22 toward the end of August.
- Run regular hill repeats of big old bunkers on the RAF base I work at (Molesworth)
- Saturday May 23rd: run/walk/crawl up Skiddaw
- Saturday June 6th: run/up Mt. Vesuvius, when in Naples
- Sunday June 14th: Knowl Hill Race
- Weekend of 25-26 July: Something 15-18 miles in the Peaks (suggestions?)
- Weekend of 8-9 August: Something 18-20 miles in the Lakes or Yorkshire (")
Or something like that. Living in Northants, 'tis a pain to find the hills. Any thoughts?
Oh, btw, I've been put off by the ER ratings on some of the races I've looked at. Should I be? What does ER mean to you?
Cheers.
