  3. GOAL SETTING • INTERMEDIATE GOALS HELP TO ACHIEVE LONG-TERM OBJECTIVES • PROVIDE FEEDBACK FOR ADJUSTING LONG-TERM GOALS

  4. GOAL SETTING FACTORS • WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT FITNESS LEVEL? • WHAT ARE THE CLIMATIC CONDITIONS? • WHAT IS THE COURSE DIFFICULTY? • WHAT ARE YOUR NON-RUNNING OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES?

  5. SETTING THE GOAL • CHALLENGING, BUT REALISTIC • NOT ARBITRARILY SELECTED • USE RECENT RACE TIMES OR TRAINING TIMES TO ACCURATELY FORECAST YOUR GOAL FINISHING TIME

  13. PREDICTING RACE TIMES • To predict 10K times from 5K times: multiply by 2 and add 90 seconds • To predict marathon times from 10K times: 5.48 x 10K time minus 28 minutes • To predict marathon times from half-marathon times: Double and add 10 minutes or 2.11 x half marathon time

  15. TRAINING TO REACH YOUR GOAL • TRAIN FROM WHERE YOU ARE, RATHER THAN WHERE YOU WANT TO BE • ESSENTIAL TRAINING ELEMENTS • VARIATION IN TRAINING WEEKS • PERIODIZATION Daniels, Jack. Daniels’ Running Formula. Human Kinetics, 1998.

  18. ESSENTIAL TRAINING ELEMENTS • EASY (E) AND LONG (L) RUNS: Use to improve ability to rely more on fat as fuel 75% max.HR and 75% vV02 Long Run not to exceed 30% of weekly mileage • THRESHOLD-PACE (T) RUNS: Raise lactate threshold 90% of max. HR or 5K pace – 25 to 30 seconds Not to exceed 10% of weekly mileage, short recoveries • INTERVAL-PACE (I) RUNS: To optimize max VO2 98-100% max. HR or 5K pace Not to exceed 10% of weekly mileage, recovery = work interval • REPETITION PACE INTERVALS: To improve economy and speed ~6 seconds faster per 400M than 5K pace Not to exceed 5% of weekly mileage, full recovery

  19. TYPICAL TRAINING WEEK • Monday: Easy or X-Training • Tuesday: Interval workout (I, T, or R) • Wednesday: Easy or X-Training • Thursday: Tempo • Friday: Rest • Saturday: Long Run • Sunday: Easy or X-Training

  20. TRAINING GUIDELINES • Increase training volume by no more than 10% weekly • Alternate hard and easy weeks • Listen to your body • How much quality training is necessary? • Periodization
