The Pudding Dash I have credited 40pts too which would mean a good WU and CD, probably at least 2 miles each to hit that target. You could do less and add an extra 30 mins on Sunday. Let me know. It’s a tough race for me as a coach cos the difference between racing it and using it as a jolly is night and day. Any problems let me know. The Tuesday session is a good one though. Keep smashing it Paul.
Coach Simon๐
Recoveries: Take 2-3 mins after the 8 min rep and 60s in between the 60 second reps.
A tough 5k session and the challenge is to see if you can hold your 5k pace in the 2nd 8 min rep when the legs are tired and you’re feeling fatigued.
Likely your heart rate will climb as you run up the hills, so don’t worry too much about drifting into Zone 3 for the hills, try and keep the rest in Zone 2.
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
