Hi everybody and fellow runners!!
I am in process of training for a 1/2 marathon that is coming up on April 2nd. The training for it is going really well, but I am trying to figure what day do put in leg strength training.
Running is not my first love, strength training is..so, I am also trying to get that to fit in to my program as well.
Right now my rotation looks like this, but am not sure where exactly to put my leg strength training day.. what do you other runners do?
Mon. Chest/Abs + 1/2 hr moderate cardio (step or kickbox)
Tues: Legs Workout + Interval run 3-4 miles
Wed: Back/Bis/Abs + 1/2 hour moderate cardio
Thur: Long Run 8-10 miles + Nap
Fri: Shoulders/Abs + 1/2 hour swimming of laps ( if not too tired)
Sat: Tris/Stretch + 4 miles steady run
Sun: REST
I will be using the Hardcore Gym series for strength training.
Any suggestions or modifications from anybody would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Lynn M.
