Hi All,
I hope you are well.
I have been training with Jeff for 12 weeks now for a half marathon, run time goal of 1 hour 50 min.
Ran 17 miles with him on Sunday which i thought was a bit extreme but hey ho, got it done.
I've been following the run / walk strategy to the letter so far and i assumed that Jeff would be increasing my running sections and decreasing my walking times but they are stillk saying walk for 3 minutes after running 4 minutes at goal race pace... seems like a lot of walking.
should i be tapering these walking sections down myself ?
see below - todays schedule is speed repeats
When i run my watch says keep within this pace for 800m. then it says walk for 3 minutes to recover.
Next run is goal pace repeats:
Same run for 800m then walk for 3 minutes.
My concern is that if i carry on walking to recover for 3 minutes every time i'll be nowhere near 1 hour 50 on the day...
Am I doing something wrong ?
Jeff seems pleased with me however:
