Hi everybody this is Adam……. We are now way into feb and the London marathon is getting closer and the training is getting more intense to reach that target of under 3 hours!! I would like to share with you all my training preparation so far……
over the christmas period I ran a distance of 12 miles over the fells of the peak district and a half marathon on the road (on different days of course). Also some shorter distances of 6 miles x-country.
For me this was a break in period….
Since then my philosophy is less is more!!
Currently I am doing
- 2 to 3 sprint sessions each week which are 400m sprints followed by 400m run 10 times
- 1 to 2 strength and conditioning sessions using kettlebells and body weight exercises for injury prevention, and
- 1 long distance run each week.
Last weekend was awesome, running over the Peak District near Sheffield challenging my navigation skills and running through peat bogs for aprox 11 miles!!!
Watch this space in the future for my progress, all the hard work is also raising money for Cancer Research if you wish to sponsor me follow this link to my page and donate on line
