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).
The schedule looks busy but the training pts is relatively modest in truth. You could always combine the S&C sessions together and give yourself an extra rest day. And the Wednesday, Friday and Sunday runs are all easy paced with the group. If it feels too much for the knee, let me know and I can reign it in a little. Keep up the great work though Adrian.
Really enjoyed felt good the whole 2hrs π

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.
