Taking the summer off from competition was one of the best decisions I've made in my career. After sitting on the sidelines watching the summer meets and the World Championships I've reached a level of motivation I haven't had for a long time. The Brussels Diamond League meet today was a great psychological send-off for the months of hard training ahead.
Now that I'm in my second week of 'real' training (i.e. not exclusively general strength stuff that I find excruciatingly boring) I've been looking forward to every session. I feel like I'm able to get into a good rhythm in all my runs and I'm recovering quickly. Here's what I've done this week:
Monday: 2x600m @ 1:30, 3x200m easy for recovery, 3x200m @ 26, then weights.
Tuesday: 10min run, 10x 120m on the grass with 50m jog rest, stretching.
Wednesday: 3x350m @ 45.8, 46.3, 46.6 with 7 min rest. Plyo (150 contacts). Self-therapy with the foam roller and stick.
Thursday: Rest, stretching.
Friday: 150 contacts of plyo. 5x20m sprints with walk-back for rest. 5x100m (60m hard, 40m coast) with walk back rest. Then weights.
