Another simple but effective session. You want to be going quicker than your current 5k pace if you are going to make improvements. Your effort level (RPE) should be high for the last 30 seconds of each rep. Dig deep to make those gains 💪

Tuesday evening with the gang. Don’t get too caught up in paces right now. It will return once we get that consistency back.

ENJOYMENT

👊 Nailed my target

I hated this at first! It was so incredibly difficult and a lot of effort. But then I actually really enjoyed it. I’m always the slowest but everyone is so kind and supportive and I’m not ever going to be Usain Bolt – I accept that! I’m here for fitness, fun, friendship, stress relief and focus. I also want to improve my running from my own baseline and be able to run races and for sustained periods, which I’m definitely seeing. I honestly do love Tuesdays because of efforts – it’s a great session and I can already feel the improvement since returning from my holiday break. You’re doing a great job coach!

Thank you for the lovely words Lou, means a lot. And I’m really pleased you enjoyed it. That was a particularly fast group and I think sometimes we want to change the narrative slightly from “I’m the slowest” to “I’m quick enough to run with these guys”. But I know it is difficult in that situation having been there myself and I think it shows was a strong character you are and why I believe you will start to see improvements in your running. But see that as a bonus, if you’re enjoying it and surrounding yourself with such positive people, in nice environments too, then that’s the most important thing.
