Another strong week, with Thursdays session always a challenging one. If you keep hitting these targets you should continue to see gains. Keep up the great work Maria.
A short but effective workout to focus on strengthening your legs and core. Click on any exercise for a Tutorial. Any problems let me know, but these are very important, not just for running.
Recoveries: Take 2-3 mins after the 8 min rep and 60s in between the 60 second reps.
A tough 5k session and the challenge is to see if you can hold your 5k pace in the 2nd 8 min rep when the legs are tired and you’re feeling fatigued.
A longer warm up than planned as bumped into a friend on route.Then my watch died🙄so relied on phone for timings.Did ok today though didn’t feel as bad as normally do on this session.
“Didn’t feel as bad as normal” 😂 That’s a good sign of progress. Excellent work on this session Maria. I’m hoping to be at Hastings parkrun on Saturday and should have your top in my car if we do manage to bump into each other. Coach Simon 🍊
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.
Tough today but completed.28.13

It was a tad windy out there this morning. Conditions will always have a big impact on our times, so long as we continue to work hard and at the right RPE we’ll still make the same gains, even if running a bit slower. Fantastic work Maria. Coach Simon 🍊
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
Was an unexpectedly busy day but Did manage to get to a gym.Only did 1 hour 20 on treadmill though
That’s still really good. Sometimes life will get in the way. But getting as much done as we can with the time available is the best option. If time is ever really limited EG 60 mins instead of 90, we can pick up the pace slightly to get the same training effect. But well done Maria. Coach Simon 🍊
