Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Getting in Shape, Training for Whitney 2012 - Ideas, input?

This is what I do most weeks....(yeah, I know..). Obviously this program is for marathon training, not something specifically tailored for Whitney.

Mon- AM run 8-10 miles easy pace, PM 5 sets weighted pull ups and power cleans 3x5
Tue- AM 10 miles (speed work: track work or tempo run), PM 100 push-ups, dumbbell bench press 3x10
Wed-usually off except for peak weeks in training cycle.
Thu-AM run 8-10 miles easy, PM 50 chin-ups, curls 3x10
Fri-AM run 8-10 miles easy, PM drink beer
Sat-AM long run of 12 to 24 miles depending upon training cycle, PM Military Press 3x5
Sun-AM off, PM squats 3x5, dead lifts 1x5, 100 push-ups

I also try to stretch and do some core work between sets or whenever I can. This is not recommended by the Surgeon General.
