I made this Training block Overview for my last marathon block because I wanted to see how my sessions were going in a nice easy way. It is really easy to have one bad session and think that all your training is derailed when in reality if you look at the big picture those one or two bad sessions are few and far between. I had 3 really bad ones in my last marathon block which in over 200 runs is really nothing.
How to get started:
- Download your copy of the Training Block Overview PDF Here
- Select 3 colours and colour in the key in the top right corner
- Write down your A Race and Goal
- As you complete each session colour in the box for that day to say how the session went
At the end of the block most of your sessions are going to be fine, good solid sessions and then you might have a handful of awesome ones and a few bad ones. This is normal, not all of your runs are going to be amazing!
If you do this please share what yours look like at the end of your training block.
P.s. If every session is awful then you might need to reevaluate your goals as you may be aiming for something a bit too hard. Remember goals should be a challenge but they should also be realistic…more on goals next month!
