With less than 18 weeks to go until Hood To Coast (at the time of this writing), I decided to make the most of this time and train as smart as possible. I enlisted the help of my wife, Lisa Javernick, who is a National Strength & Conditioning Association, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS/NSCA) and also is avid runner/cyclist. Lisa put together a training schedule for this year’s race and I’m going to allow you all to see it. Keep in mind that this training schedule is tailored to my ability and may not be appropriate for you, but I’m hoping it may offer some inspiration and insight to help your training. Most of all it will help to keep me accountable to my training and team members. If you decide to use this training schedule you assume all risks.
The schedule that has been developed takes me through three general training phases, Endurance & Base Training and a Strength phase. I chose to have the schedule designed around the Georgetown-Idaho Springs half marathon, which is actually two weeks before HTC.
The schedule has already been written and I am a week and a half into it. I am only going to post the current day’s workout plus the next 7 days, so you’ll need to check back daily for updates.
