I appreciate we might need to reschedule some runs this week. I’ve got the two parkruns in there, both at differing paces. Some of us are heading up to Staplehurst to do the EOY 10 Miler which could be an option and would be a natural replacement for the session I have put on Sunday. Let me know if you need to change things up. There are also effort sessions Monday and Tuesday if you have the availability and fancied that. Not sure what AC are doing but we roll right through. Merry Christmas Chris 🎄
Happy to get everything done and to manage the back pain too
Excellent work Chris. We are starting to work at a decent level now, so the gains will start to happen quicker. Glad the back is under control for now. Keep doing those stretches, even if it feels better.
The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.
Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜
A really quick 12 minute core workout!! 30s recovery between reps. Click on the exercise to view a Tutorial.
10 Mins WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
30 Mins @ HM Pace (RPE: 6)
10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
A good opportunity to practice your half marathon goal pace during a midweek tempo run. Factor in hills and weather, which may effect pace, in which case nail the right RPE.
