I will be using this blog to schedule group runs, seminars, and workouts for all my athletes and other people interested in doing the ultra. I will also be using this blog to document my training for the 2010 Vermont 100 Mile Ultramarathon. For official articles, please visit my other blog at http://coachjoegold.blogspot.com.

March 1, 2010 - Key Workout - 4x500 meters swimming (1 minute rest) - 3000 meters total

AM Workout: Swimming

1x500 Warmup
4x500 freestyle with 1 minute rest in between reps
2x100 warmdown
------------
3000 meters total

Times for each 500 meter rep: 7:13, 7:22, 7:20, 7:23.

I give this workout a B. Not too bad, but had room for improvement. I was found to be a bit tired since I did swim hard yesterday so my stroke was ever so slightly off.

Still, I'll take the times gratefully. They show a lot of improvement in this discipline over the past month; I love seeing the evidence!

I'll do some nice, easy training the rest of the day and take an active, easy day tomorrow. I am hoping to gear up for the difficult 10 mile run on Wednesday if all goes as planned.
