    Hi Seth,

    Thanks for the reply. I’m tracking my data with a Garmin watch and using training peaks. I have used some training plans in the past from Uphill Athlete and saw progress when following them.
    I found it was difficult to follow exactly because sometimes the work situation would change and I would be doing more more intense activity at work which then left little energy to complete the work out or recover properly from a workout.

    The strength training I have been following very similar to how you have suggested with low rep, heavy weights but for my running I’m very seldom doing sprints of intervals and mostly doing 45 – 60min of zone 2 running. This I find easier to fit in after a day of work without being completed exhausted.

    Once I begin on the next training plan I will take these considerations into account.
