We are a little ahead of schedule in terms of the target (100pts) this week, but it’s good to have some in the bank sometimes. Another good week with a really good session Tuesday and a solid week thereafter. Just a case of keeping things consistent. Keep smashing it Jim.

100 Points Target
95 Points Achieved

Bit of a mare this week and hopefully be on it this week but on call so we will see where we go this .

I wouldn’t say that. We hit 95% of the training which is something we always want to aim for. Granted it was a little off plan, but that’s fine, especially given the gritting. I think give yourself credit for what you did achieve this week. I’m happy with the work you put in.

Hills can really build your strength as well as improve your running form. This session is tough but will really help you make big gains. Use the downhill as a light recovery jog, so exact recovery times can be flexible.

Yeah thought I done well on the uphills but possibly slow at the last two
Great session Jim. It’s a tough one and consistency is the key. Keep showing up and hopefully that fitness will continue to improve. Glad Shaun liked it as well. Tuesdays are open to everyone and I appreciate you inviting him along.

Had a lovely easy run with Mel from H&S until 2 minutes from the end got pain in left leg just above knee, good 5 minutes for it to go away hence why no strides were done might do them Sunday.
Oh no that doesn’t sound great. At least it came towards the end of the run. Sensible to miss the strides in that scenario.

Miss was gritting but that’s no excuse.
Getting started is often the hardest thing. Once you do that first exercise the time can fly. Next week.

9pts | Easy parkrun

“Easy means Easy! Not 5k pace, not 10k pace, not even marathon pace. Easy pace!! 😉”

Save those legs for the bigger sessions and enjoy running comfortably among the pack.

Thank you.

Loved it nice and easy but can’t do easy I know coach but felt good at the end number 78 completed
Great work Jim! I’ll give you some bonus pts given you pushed a bit harder and did the extra beforehand, so on this occasion I’m happy it wasn’t truly easy. And that’s something to bear in mind going forward. I’ve you’ve missed a session or two in the week, you can earn more pts by working harder on an easy run. Same time, just more effort and more points.

9pts | 30 Mins Swim

Enjoy. Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training.

36pts | 120 Mins Run

Long runs are key. Fuel and hydrate well & join a group if you can.

Done Sunday afternoon Solo Run very nice and easy, sorry no strides this week Or core or swimming
Well done Jim, never easy to get out solo on a Sunday afternoon. I appreciate the gritting will have an effective on the energy levels so no worries about those few sessions. New week coming up.
