Debbie Carr 2018 Official Coach Thread

@Debbie Carr

Here's your personal Coach Thread, as promised. This is where you'll return to post all your "coach" questions as responses; I'll see them and reply. This first post is here to guide you through your first year on EN, so you can always come back here. 

As you'll see in this forum, I handle all manner of edits and changes.  So post away, know that I reply here usually M/W/F each week.

Coach Notes

Time to get ready to rock for SR!!!!  I have loaded your HALF plan into your account so you are rolling there with your training. Please be sure to check out the Learning / Race Execution resources! You'll recover for two weeks then roll into the Run Focus block for four weeks before finishing off with the Balanced Marathon plan into CIM. We can dial in efforts / details / goals for CIM once we close out SR and see how you recover!

Everything is loaded for you in Final Surge...let's do this!!!

  • Hello,

    Thank you for taking this time to write a schedule for me. I thought it was time to get a coach but due to family and work obligations it's going to be impossible for me to follow any plan but my own... I will need to cancel this program all together.
