Well it is now 5 weeks until my 5K. I am signed up for the 2nd Annual Miami Children's Hospital 5K.
I feel pretty good on the road again but I need to get serious. I have just been concentrating on increasing my endurance but I havent really pushed myself. Consider this a warning to my legs...we are going for broke the next 5 weeks. I did some research online regarding 5K prep schedules but none really drew interest. I consider myself a novice at running. I dont mix things up much, I go out and run. That what I enjoy doing...hence the name. I haven't gotten into mixing up my training. I am just no their yet. I am sure I will once the 5K is over. I have already purchased cones for sprint workouts and looking for hills to get some hill work it. But for the next 5 weeks I am just keeping it simple. Running.
With that said I devised my own schedule based on what I think I can accomplish with my life schedule and knowing that I am currently incorporating other types of strength training (Insanity, Kettle Bell) into my fitness schedule. Feel free to copy.
Vaya!
