Those following a structured plan for BYD is sverely affected by the haze. Because the month of October is our peak or race specific phase. This is where we train with race day specificty, i.e at 30km more run, MP pace training and more endurance speed intervals. All that while maintaining peak weekly mileage. NOw the first two week of October is my lowest mileage is training. I think I have give up on aiming for my goal for this race. Look for another A race next year.
