Training Plan Update

A small update.  I'm going to get rid of one of the rest days, adding a 5K in its place.  Now my week should look like this (with the actual activities shifting based on the weather).

  • One long run -- the longer of (i) the time it takes me to run 5K or (ii) my time goal from my original plan.  On a recovery week, look at (ii).  Targeting capping my BPM in all cases.
  • One 5K --  targeting capping my BPM.  No difference during a recovery week.
  • Two long bikes -- targeting 22+ miles.  On a recovery week, base mileage based on how I feel.
  • One interval training.
  • One brick -- targeting the time goal from my original plan.  Targeting capping my BPM for the run.
  • One rest day.
As noted previously, switching to a capped BPM makes the runs easier and so I'd like to add another run to work on my aerobic capacity.
