I have now completed 7 days of training with The Run Experience (https://therunexperience.com/). It has been a difficult adjustment going from 5 days of running to 3 days of running with 2 days of strength and 1 day of cross-training. I have also been training for ten weeks and The Run Experience (TRE) is a marathon training plan with a sixteen week plan. So, for this 1st week weekend, TRE had minimal hours of running and with my original training plan I was on eighteen miles for Saturday and an hour on Sunday.
Well, this weekend was a bust. I was only able to get out 11 miles on Saturday and 12 miles on Sunday. Whether it was the heat/humidity, fueling or the faster pace of the running partner, adjustments will need to be made. We will see what this next week brings as I continue to learn the TRE plan.
