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.

Week of May 17 - May 23 - Taper Time

This is the 4th week of the mesocycle. As this is supposed to be a normal rest cycle, this will be modified to a taper week with a 100k (Mayapple Ultras) on Saturday. No Key Workouts are scheduled for this week. After the huge mileage of the spring, this is going to feel like a vacation.

The goals of the week are:

4000 meters of swimming
40 miles of cycling
100 miles of running (38 miles during the week plus 62 miles, or 100k of running on Saturday

I will try to note how I will prepare for this race this weekend, from looking at the course to checking the weather to trying to use my mobile phone to keep updated on the web during the race. Stay tuned.
