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).
Sunday’s run is the key. Again you could potentially do it Saturday and time the last 5km with parkrun π€ 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.
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.

| Calf Raises | 30s x 2 |
| Split Squat | 60s x 2 |
| Wall Sits | 60s x 2 |
| Single Leg Deadlift | 60s x 2 |

15 minutes. Bish. Bash. Bosh. Add some weights once ready to progress with some of the exercises.
7km @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
7km @ Marathon Pace (RPE: 5)
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!!
