Training Along the East River Park

In June I had devised a workout plan to help me get in shape. I needed a workout that would be good for 10K and half-marathon distances.

For my Tuesday and Thursday training sessions I do the following track workout running the track portions just a little bit faster than race pace:

Run – Warm up 2.65 miles
Track – 400 meters
Track – 2000 meters
Track – 2000 meters
Track – 2000 meters
Track – 1600 meters
Track – 400 meters
Run – Warm Down 2.65 miles

On Wednesday, the day between the track workouts, I run 10 miles at 1 minute per mile slower than race pace.

On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings I run 5 miles.

So far it's been good.

UPDATE: I'm not running 5 miles in the morning at the moment.
