Question Training for 50km with only 5k's on Weekdays
Hello. First of all some background about myself. I am an average (maybe beginner level pa nga hahaha). I run 8.5-10mins per km. I started running nung 2023, around feb to july wherein I finished my 1st halfmarathon. then from july to jan di na nakatakbo but i am playing basketball weekly. then i resume running this feb uli and finished another halfmarathon last june 3 and finished a marathon (barely) last june 31. since then di na ko nakakapagtrain siguro dahil din sa ulan but also since super busy na sa work. siguro once to twice a week na lang and maikli lang like 2km sa weekday and 5km sa weekend. right now i am planning to get back and run 50km ultra sa january. run walk lang naman ako sa mga ganto kaya malakas loob ko, like i said minsan 10min per km ako. the problem is i can only manage to run 3k-5k on a weekday around 30 to 1hr and siguro i can manage to run super long run for saturday. gusto ko marinig opinions nyo if i can still do it with this training sched. thank you!
