Sunday’s run is the key. Again you could potentially do it Saturday and time the last 5km with parkrun πŸ€” The benefit of that is knowing you can pick a flat route and it will be easier to hit the paces, rather than a potentially hilly route with the group on Sunday. But another strong week. A recovery week coming up next. Keep smashing it Karl.

Big session this! But ideal if you have a hilly race coming up. Focus on good form and don’t go off too hard in rep 1, let the hill make it tough. Good luck! You got this. Run tall & proud.

That was a tough session.
Yeah not sure the team enjoyed that as much but sometimes it’s these sessions which make the biggest difference, especially mentally as we need to dig deep to get them done. So great work Karl.

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.

Enjoyable Wednesday run and strides completed
You did crop up in Sam D’s feedback which is always entertaining, referring to you as “Batshit Beaney” as you raced him at strides. It was definitely a compliment by the way. Great work Karl!!

7km @ Half Marathon Pace (RPE: 6)

A really good half marathon session. Slowly increasing the pace and finishing at goal pace on tired legs. Those last 7km should be tough but keep working hard to maintain that pace. You got this!!

Enjoyable Sunday run. I think if I was running on my own it might have been easier to keep to target paces. Felt good throughout and did a few extra KMs
We definitely hit the target pts, given the extra mileage. 52.7km for the week. At quick glance that’s your best this year, which again highlights the progression of the training and definitely worth celebrating. I think at some stage doing one of these paced sessions solo or in a smaller group will be beneficial, but that’s cool. It was a great run. Well done Karl.
