Two Months Until CBHM-Ask Jim has a Training Schedule for You

Long Run Guidelines with 2 Months to go to 2018 CBHM

Written by Jim Burnett
Ask Jim has a Training Schedule for you!

How long should your weekend long runs be as you prepare for CBHM?

I suggest running timed runs as follows. Run out-and-back routes so you know to turn around when half the time is up.

During your warm up start really slow, even walking is good.

Give you body a chance to get the juices flowing gradually, then slow it down during the cool down to begin the recovery process.

April 14-15    60 min: 15 min WU, 30 min @ race pace + 1:30-2:00 mpm, 15 min CD
April 21-22    90 min: 20 min WU, 50 min @ race pace + 1:30-2:00 mpm, 20 min CD
April 28-29    60 min: 15 min WU, 30 min @ race pace + 1:30-2:00 mpm, 15 min CD
May 5-6       120 min: 20 min WU, 80 min @ race pace + 2:00 mpm, 20 min CD
May 12-13     60 min: 15 min WU, 30 min @ race pace + 1:30-2:00 mpm, 15 min CD
May 19-20     90 min: 20 min WU, 50 min @ race pace + 1:30-2:00 mpm, 20 min CD
May 26-27     60 min: 15 min WU, 30 min @ race pace + 1:30-2:00 mpm, 15 min CD
It’s all about patience and restraint as you prepare for a half or full marathon. You want to get to the line fresh and injury free so you can enjoy the race.
