Subject: Training Plan QuestionIn my forced recovery from Eagleman, I've been planning my training for the summer and early fall instead of actually working out. I plan on doing a century mid September and the Baltimore Marathon mid October. I've been trying to make a hybrid of a century training program (10 week ) and a marathon training program (16 week ) to that end. My question is this. If I alternate the long workout from each plan each week (ie. week 1 do long run, week 2 do long ride, week 3 long run, etc... ) will I lose the training benefits from both plans and be a slow runner and a slow cyclist, or will the fitness I gain in one still be applicable to the other? Thanks a bunch everybody. |
