RE: 20k training W8: great running week (RunForSteem)
Thanks for the mention @romaincrx .
Follow the plan my friend. If you have a 15K test that day you have to do it!
Running Plans are done to set you in the best fit condition for the target race (I mean, if they are well done...of course).
If you feel fine and without injures, you should do the test. I understand that the race is by the end of May, isn't it? You have time to recover, don't worry.
BTW, 3 days a week is not such a hard plan, it is very convenient to add one session more of soft run (recovery run)the day after a hard session so you can release the tensions of your harmed muscles (think about)
Thank you for all this information. I will do it if my leg is ok then :) Yes the race is on the 27th of May. And I know, 3 sessions a week is not a lot but I decided to do that and not 4 or 5 so I can change the days easily (because of other activities). I will maybe try it :) And what do you think of a slow and small run the day before the race?
it is very convenient. It is what I call "precompetitive run"
25' of slow run(pures aerobical) + 5 to 6 100m progressive sprints, keeping the good running gesture, try to do it at the same hour on which your race will start the day after.
Thank you for the tip :)
You're welcome , let me know if you need anything else
