1.25 Mile CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

A challenging session as holding goal pace for 1 mile can be tough, but it builds up your endurance and mental strength.

Tough session, but a good one ahead of the 5 Miler next week. A few of us will be in the park doing this at 10am if you’re available. There’s a good 1 mile loop around the bottom of the park. Perhaps start off a bit conservatively and then you have a time to beat in the next 4 reps. Almost like a little challenge to yourself to keep you motivated.

Sorry this week has been all over the place. I tried to do the 90mins on Wednesday, but started and just couldn’t run, don’t really know why, think i was just exhausted! Hips not been great either. Then a friend was doing an efforts session on fri so decided to join them to try and motivate me, hence why I didn’t do the session you set, sorry. But I felt quite good friday 🤷‍♀️ I’m off work this week so I will try and bit harder, I’m off to Spain on Thurs and not taking running stuff so will try and fit my runs in before. So won’t be doing the 5 miler. But I’ll try and get to the park in the morning.

Well done on getting some speed work in though. Would be great if you can make Tuesday. I will tweak the plan. I appreciate things are tough right now and don’t fret too much about missing sessions. The goal is to keep the fitness as much as possible, so when that enthusiasm, mojo returns you’re not right back to square one. So I think it’s worth sticking with it, as in the long run this next few months is important, even if you don’t make progress, just ticking along and getting runs in will make a big difference.
