Loca - I'm really encouraged that a tip-top athlete like yourself thinks that tracking time, rather than just mileage, is a positive thing. Obviously you do big miles, but most of us, from the top athletes, to those just starting out, could benefit from some cross training, core strength work and so on. And yet all our targets in Fetchland are about mileage. Shurely shome mishtake...?

Please join the group, so I can add you to the top. Cheers! :-)G

Have joined and updated my stats :-) Agree, the supplementary training is very important. I know I don't do enough!

Out of interest, if you're still here, what proportions do you do and would you recommend? e.g. in a 10 hour week: 7 hours running, 2 hours cross training (eliptical, biking, swimming, rowing, whatev), 1 hour core strength (pilates, crunches/plank, weights work etc.) ? Or what would yours look like? :-)G

This just feels so much more positive.

Distance doesn't always reflect the amount of commitment ppl put in.

Ooh, I wonder how the order of names listed in groups works...? Pesto has come above Loca. Ah, it's the order in which they joined the group, I think, not the order of the posting of comments. Gotcha. As you were. Welcome Magbag and sioux. Put your comment in the group and it will be up there in a mo...!

About This Thread

Maintained by Legless
A thread for those feeling left out by all the "1000 miles in 2011" threads etc Let's track Hours instead of Miles!

WHATEVER YOU CLASS AS 'TRAINING' COUNTS AS TRAINING.

To get your name in lights here on the thread header, please join the group, then keep a note of your target and progress in there. I'll copy it in here periodically!

Hour targets...
Target . . . Aug ... Sept ....... Oct ..........Nov
% . . . 66.6% ... 74.8% ...... 83.3% .....91.8%
200 . . . 133.2 ... 149.6 ....... 166.6 ......183.6
250 . . . 166.5 ... 187.0 ...... 208.25 ......229.5
300 . . . 199.8 ... 224.4 ....... 249.9 ..... 275.4
365 . . . 243.1 ... 273.02 ..... 304.0 ...... 335.1
400 . . . 266.4 ... 299.2 ...... 333.2 ..... 367.2
500 . . . 333.0 ... 374.0 ....... 416.5 ..... 459.0

Remember, you can set your own target. Doesn't have to be 365 hours. Doesn't even have to be annual. Could be, "I will do 20 hours training in March." or "I will average 3 hours a week for the next 3 months." or "I will do 150 hours for the rest of the year." or whatever. You decide it, plan it, state it, then let's all go do it!!
