Looks brutal, but this is the last big week before the taper. Sunday’s run perhaps shorten a little as we don’t want to be going beyond 32km this close to the marathon. If you get to that point before hitting 3 hours then I would stop. Hopefully being back in the UK will help though and you can do some runs with Matt. Any problems let me know. There is the option to move some bit around.

Really like this session. A chance to practice your 10k pace, but break it down into chunks to make it manageable. Enjoy. You got this.

Managed to train with Matthew for this one. Great run
Brilliant, great to have Matt’s company, must be lovely having done so much solo work for a long time. Say hi to Matt from me.

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.

If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.

Did this last night. May struggle to get the 40 min run in tbh
Well done Ben, no worries, if time is limited always best to ditch the run with the least pts on offer, as that will then have less effect on the fitness. I don’t see one missed 40 min easy run making much difference at this stage of the training though.

Time to make sure your fuelling and hydration is on point. 30-60g of carbs per hour. The longer the run goes on the tougher it will get.
