Re: Suggestions/recommendations on non-race driven training???
I mostly run on trails and rarely race. When I do race, I approach it like a group run, not a competitive effort. Also, I have a tendency to get injured if I don't cross-train. Typical week, taken from Maffetone:
M -- 45 minutes, stationary bike
T -- 45-60 minutes, run
W -- 45-60 minutes, run
T -- 45 minutes, stationary bike
F -- 45-60 minutes, run
S -- off
S -- 75-180 minutes, run
All of this is down below my MAF heart rate -- which I find keeps me from overdoing anything and risking injury.
