To address the “ad hoc” nature of my training… Training should be an iterative process that gets fine tuned the farther you go. I’m in that phase now and got hit with some bad weather days and made some ill advised “adjustments” to my schedule. Period. The schedule was to do a full rest Thursday and come back for hill intervals today. Had I a better measure of my recovery I wouldn’t have made those mistakes.
The utility of a rigid training schedule at this point (or any point) escapes me. The plan should always have room for adjustment due to fatigue/improvement.
