Milo Eliminations in Legazpi
by yvesyu on Jul.27, 2009, under Uncategorized
It’s been 9 months since I made a goal to finish a Milo 21k. Eventhough I slack off a bit on my training due to more time spent building my dream house. I am pretty confident I can finish a 21k road race, the big question is how long??? Milo has a cut off time of 2hr and 30mins for a 21k, so basically it leaves me no choice but to aim for this.
With less than a month left, I am now trying to up my training constantly checking my morning heart rate to see if I’m over training or not. I’m still planning to do a 21k long run before the race to build my self confidence, finishing at least within 2hrs 30mins or close to that, or even actually trying the milo course before the race. Because I checked last year’s finish times and the slowest runner here in Legazpi finished at 2hrs and 16mins, now I dont want to be the last runner this year. hehe
Things to do before august 23
1. run a 21k within 2hrs and 30mins
2. have a very good hydration plan
3. more tempo runs, at least 2x a week
4. follow strickly my 3k recovery,8k tempo, 10+k long run per week
