Schedule help please

Anna Stanbaugh

Hi Coach,

I need help with my schedule again. I am in week 10 of HI plan right now. Next week Thursday I am going to Cabo to support Rich. We are staying until Saturday 04/05. I will not have a bike there. Could you please advise how to adjust my plan?

Thanks!

Anna

Anna, very exciting!!! Pack your swim stuff and the run shoes! Good news is that you are quite a ways away from your race...so no real pressure there. Do regular week through Wed. Thursday off for Travel. Friday is some form of swim / short run (call it a 45' run with strides). Sat is your long run from Thursday (bring HYDRATION!!!!) and Sunday is cheering. Then that next week is all about balancing the run with some swimming. I want about 45' a day as you can. Example:

Mon - 45' with 2 x 1 mile at Z4.
Tues - 45' easy with strides at the end.
Wed - Swim Only.
Thu - Long Run Day
Fri - Swim
Sat - Travel Day
Sun - Easy ride up to 2 hours...mostly Zone 2, get to know your bike again. If you feel good, you can push the last 1/3 of this ride in Zone 3 / ABP.

Monday at work will be wicked hard to get stuff done...if you need to take the day off to get back up to speed...doooooo it.

Thoughts?

Thanks Coach. Sounds like a good plan!
