looking for advice on training volume/intensity after completing CDA and then Louisville where I qaulified for Hawaii in just 5 weeks. Have done nothing so far but feel ready to get goin again.
Congrats on qualifying. I’d recommend that you enjoy a short down period and taper as you did prior to Louisville. Your base fitness is already there. See you in October.
Ease back into it. Keep your training base-like for a few weeks (or similiar to your early season stuff if you really feel good). Then add a few of your late season weeks with the usual taper. If you are getting sore or unusually tired then stick to the base-like training. All that previous training is still in you. So, you are really doing a maintenance program and rebuilding your durability for one more crack at the distance. Something like that…
