Given how close we are to the marathon I would be sensible on the track. Go at 6/10 effort rather than 8/10 effort. Quick pace on a cold night could cause problems and ideally we don’t need to be running that fast right now. Other than that, just a solid consistent week. Keep being a legend.

Don’t go off too fast as 20 reps is a lot. You should feel like you’re working at a very high effort level towards the last 15 seconds of each rep. Go get ’em!
