6 x 3 Mins Uphill (RPE: 8)
Downhill Recovery Jog (RPE: 3)

10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

 

You want to find a hill which is challenging but runnable for 3 minutes. Don’t worry too much about pace, let the elevation dictate the RPE. Good form is imperative here. Run tall.

We had a night without Arthur…..so Matt got up and did hill reps with me! He chose the hill-the ridge, I think he hates me! It was relentless but good! Almost gave up on one rep but said to myself “this is where you make gains” knuckled down and got them done! Hill reps complete by 6:30! 💪🏻🍊

Wow, that’s impressive. To get it done that early. And that’s the mindset we need in those moments. That’s why we are different and make improvements whilst others stand still as they choose the easy option. Fantastic work Kirsty and that’s a decent stretch of road for that session. There will be points in Sunday’s run when the brain will be screaming “stop” and “you can’t do this”, but you’ve proven time and time again in recent weeks that you can. So when that moment(s) arrives Sunday I want you to dig deep, get emotional if you can, slow down if need be, but keep going. There are a few really tough points, and in those moments a 30 second walk is acceptable, but count to 30, 10 even and then go again. That’s strategy not failure, by the way. But generally I know you’re strong enough now to run a good race Sunday.
