Herman’s Training Log - April 30 Update

Now, I am entering a more typical training build:

Monday - Rest

Tuesday - 60-90 minutes jog.

Wednesday - Workout (e.g., 30 minutes jog; hill/speed intervals for approx. 20-40 minutes, including rest; 30 minutes jog).

Thursday - Strength routine (e.g., single leg and core focus), ideally add some walking in the afternoon.

Friday - 60-90 minutes jog.

Saturday - 90-120 minutes jog with elevation ranging from 3-5k feet of gain.

Sunday - Upper body lifting and 90 minutes quicker clip on flat terrain.

The past couple of weeks have been pretty uninspired in the training department, but that tracks with having a few intense professional obligations and the general malaise that accompanies a down cycle. I’m hoping I can kick this with summer on the horizon and some more enjoyable long runs becoming available.

At any rate, I expect this to be the rotation (alternating hill and speed intervals each week and increasing time on my feet) for the indefinite future. If not, I’ll update along the way. May try to get a little rock climbing in, very moderate stuff.
