60 Mins Run
Zone 2: Easy
If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.
Which weekend are you parkrun H2H with Klare? She’s mentioned it a few times, but I’ve not got it in the plan yet. But this is just a solid week, we are kind of just maintaining things right now before we really jump into the big marathon stuff in the start of the year. So we just need to be patient. Increase the training too soon and you won’t reach London without picking up a niggle. But keep up the great work.

A really good session and chance to see if you can push the pace and hit 5k pace or a little under. This will test both your speed and endurance. The challenge is made tougher by slightly shorter recoveries.
Trust your PT.
Always explain to your PT what else you are doing this week so they can adjust the session accordingly.
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.
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.
