Lorraine's Squad Training Guide
In 2014 I released the first edition of my training guide. I update it periodically to take into account the latest research and developments, so over the next couple of weeks, I'll release the updated chapters as I complete them.
Here is the contents list, although I will not necessarily be doing it in this order for the update:
The warm up and cool down
Rest
Recovery
Training principles (Part 1)
Design your own training program
Using heart rate in your training
Long slow distance (LSD)
Improve your running economy/efficiency
Energy systems
Nutrition
Weight training
Dealing with injuries
Training principles (Part 2)
Time trials
Pacing and Effort
Tempo Running
Speed work and fartlek
Hills
Race preparation
Support and mental toughness
Ultra running and stress management
Tapering
The day before the race
Race knowledge
Race day
What’s next?
I also have ideas on a few new chapters to add.
To keep myself motivated, I'll upload each updated chapter to this blog. Look out for the first update on Monday night/Tuesday morning next week. (I'm having the weekend off!).
