Jeremy,
What I’ve been doing with my hill sprints is using hrTSS for my warmups and cool downs, then for each hill sprint add 5-10 tss to that. Seems to get it close to a max strength TSS that UHA recommends. Then I monitor how tired I am 2-3 days out and if I’m still feeling it, add a few TSS points. Just be consistent with your TSS input.

@cogburner – Thanks for your advice, I took it and I completed my 50(ish) miler successfully and actually placed ok (8th/79 OA). I did do some “back to backs” by doing my normal long run on day 1, then did a long easy road bike ride on the second day so I wouldn’t have as much pounding from running. This worked well for me and I recovered each time nicely for the next week of training.
Thanks again!

Thanks for the replies. I’ll do the 145 HR suggestion and retest at beginning of next training block testing at a higher HR.
Unfortunately that is the flattest terrain I have and will use pretty much the same route on the next test for consistency.
Thanks again.

Scott,
I haven’t done the AnT test yet, I was planning to on Tues. 2/9. I was wondering if I should retest for AeT sooner since it wasn’t in the suggested 3.5-5% Pa:Hr range (it was at 2.49% on Tues 2/2)? Or just adjust HR up slightly for it until the normal 4-6 week retest?
Thanks

I think cycling is great for building a running base as I’ve noticed my fitness greatly improve with 1-2 days of cycling/week. However its not very structured and I ride as hard as I feel like that day so can’t say for sure how high intensity cycling really affects the running base. Then again too running is top priority for me.
