gdctex - 2011-01-01 1:42 PM Race planning question:

I have a half marathon in a couple of weeks for which I would like to figure out how to plan out a race strategy.  

Any suggestions on links to guidelines on planning for a race to as pacing, zones, etc. based on goals.   My main goal is to improve on my first race last month.  



zone 3 until mile 11 then go.  keep it simple. 


I agree with Fatty, and he's cheap!

Linda


Zone 3 tends to  be WIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE!!  If you know your LT, get a couple beats below it and let 'er rip.  I dream of the day I can do that again.  Have fun Glen.


I did have the VO2 test done earlier this year, so feel pretty good about my zones, etc.  

Thanks to everyone for the great input/advice!


Really?! The year is not a day old yet and you had a VO2 test done? Wink Could not resist! Rip it up!

A better school? Uhm, I don't know about that, but TCU was the BETTER football team tonight.  The 2 point conversion attempt totally blew....Fatty, did you go to that school?

Huge Fail....on all fronts.
and.......I just cut you outta the will!!!  Laughing 

It's one football game (and I won't even whine about the 2 ghost pass interference calls that game them at least one touchdown)  When the rest of the TCU athletic programs want to come up north to play, just let us know!  I am sure our hockey programs, basketball programs, etc. are looking for an easy game. 

And the previous post on academics pretty much sums that side of the debate up.   "On the admissions front, Wisconsin is a bit more difficult to get into. Wisconsin also has a more impressive six-year graduation rate, a statistic that says a lot about a school's academic successes. Overall, I'd give Wisconsin a slight edge over Texas Christian, but both are excellent universities"

I won't even mention that also went to SMU....

none of this sounds like Hockey or NFL football.

Who are the Badgers are they anywhere as good Michigan.... GO BLUE. Look we don't have good college football I have to route for someone. Everyone I know up here is a Michigan fan.

While you guys were busy talking smack about who's got a better football team and school I had my first run of the year.  I haven't run in three weeks, Christmas and all the girls at home got very sick so my training took a back seat.  I took advantage of a nice 39F weather with no rain.

I believe I finalized my training plan for the next 16 weeks which will take me to week 1 of my 20 week HIM training plan.  I build a run focus program using the Custom Training Plan Creator  tool.  I decided to not taper for the half marathon on May 29 and my first Oly on June 26. 

Just realized how late it is so I'm going to cut this short and get some sleep. 

Cheers!

Good morning peeps, what's everyone up to?  I moved my long run from yesterday to today due to rain.  Guess what?  It's raining even harder today and I have tons of stuff to do later today!  Not looking forward to running in squishy socks after the first 10 minutes, but it could be worse...it's only 50F out there right now and not too windy.

Hope when I get back, Suzy and Fatty are done "discussing".  Everyone knows the best universities are out here on the left coast... duh.

You have got to be kidding me.....I had to read pages upon pages of a certain team called the GIANTS and you're crabbing about one day of discussing College football?  WI grads take all college sports very seriously.....

Oh poor you!!! Sunny here!!! 27 degrees, but sunny nonetheless. You'll feel soooooooo good when you're done!!

I don't follow college football -- went to a DIII school and lived in the pool. But hubby just informed me that we have Orange Bowl plans with two of his college buds... cuz Stanford is in it (his alma mater). First I'd heard of it, and I'm sending him out on his own cuz it's a school night and everything starts too late for kids who will be a total mess after two weeks of up-too-late-the-sleeping in. While I look forward to resuming my routine tomorow, re-entry can be a beeyatch sometimes...

I watching weather.com here, and it looks like there's a window in the rain in 2 hours.  If so, I'm getting on my bike, after I double-dose with Day-Quil.  If no window, I'll try a trot.  My body really wants to move after 3 days of complete inactivity.  Taking down decorations today isn't getting my heart rate up, and I can't figure out how to log it.  fail.

Had to root for the Badgers yesterday, seeing as I've ran through their stadium!  Tough loss.  However, the SHARKS won last night, and I have high hopes for the Niners and the Cardinal!!

Really, though, just biding time until the GIANTS are back. WooHooo.......

And check out Suzy's ranking in the USAT NCC......are she and I really the only ones in this MG participating????

And check out Suzy's ranking in the USAT NCC......are she and I really the only ones in this MG participating????
Get out your bike, Suzy, it's BIKE MONTH!!



LOVE the sports references....I really only know the BADGERS and the PACKERS.

35 really grueling miles today....here's to my FTP soaring for the upcoming season! 

PS. Maybe you should think about another run through Camp Randall.  I could use some company in '12!!!  I've got TWIN this year to keep me motivated, but who's on deck after that????
