5 POINTS
Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
Left track off so you can rest after Beckley. Although Tuesday evening will be the same session as track last week. Soz 🤦♂️ I’ve also put another parkrun in. I’m not too worried about time this week but would like you to make those few changes from last time. Get a bit further forward, start a tad quicker and be proud of your efforts, whatever the time is. Pts = Progress. Let’s go!

Really push that pace here, especially on the 2s and 1s. A chance to really improve your pace and bring that 5k time down. Let’s do this!
The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

15 minutes. Bish. Bash. Bosh. Add some weights once ready to progress with some of the exercises.
parkrun is the best!!! Every Saturday at 9am. A great opportunity to push our effort levels and run alongside other people. Make sure you get there nice and early for your WU & Strides. I normally aim for 8:15 to give myself plenty of time.
