Monday’s session is a good one for you as you can hit some quick lap times on the shorter reps. Sunday’s long run you could bring forward a day. Again if you want company Stacy (140 mins) and Sarah (160 mins) both have long runs in their plan. Any problems let me know. Happy New Year Rebecca.

A great 5k session to improve speed. Don’t got off too quick, so focus on your pace in those first few reps, then you’ll get an idea of how far you can run each rep. From there you can then pick up the pace and cadence for the 1 minute reps.

Wasn’t feeling it but glad I went. Really good group about my pace tonight so was able to chase Nikki and others. Splits were: 2 mins: 8:46, 8:15, 8:33, 8:29, 8:32, 8:22, 8:11 8:02 (5k target 8:46) 1 mins: 8:00, 7:57, 8:04, 7:49, 7:56, 7:56, 7:48 7:56 (3k target 8:43) With the exception of the first, all well ahead of target.
Fantastic running Rebecca. Glad you had such a good session and loved the way you built into and got progressively quicker. Given your goal, just being consistent with these sessions now is what’s important. If we can maintain your speed whilst building your endurance that should deliver the best results come April.

You can superset two exercises together. I’ve tried to set it up like that. So you would do 15 reps of deadlifts, straight into 10 reps of Tricep Dips, and then repeat 3 times. Helps save on recoveries and can make the session shorter. It’s not essential, but an option.

All done. Tough but no issues.
It’s definitely a step up from what you were doing before, but I feel the key exercises are now in there. Perhaps a few we may introduce later on as a replacement, but if you keep doing this, slowly progressing, your strength is going to be excellent.

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.

Happy New Year! Missed park run so went out with my partner in crime. Windy but all fine no issues!
Happy New Year. Saves a lot of time doing your run closer to home and avoiding the crowds is nice sometimes. Well done Rebecca 💯

First time doing the new S&C plan (I’d done the session but not fed back before you’d updated the Monday session!). Got the hang of the new ones quite quickly. Only tough one was the goblet squat, all others were okay but I’m sure I’ll feel it tomorrow! The programme flows and I liked the stacking. In the end I stacked as follows – let me know if that’s not okay: * Dumbbells deadlifts and triceps dips * weighted glute bridge * Split squats, bicep curl (went down 2 kg = elbow) and calf raises * plank, bent knee raises, goblet, * wall sits (done in the hall as there’s no wall space in the garage) * dead bugs, farmers walk and Russian twist (so did each * a short rest then another * etc)
Really well done. Glad you enjoyed the session. It is a slight step up but I’m confident we cover all the bases now. I might do the odd tweak, but it looks good to me. I like the way your structured it. As long as we don’t go from one leg exercise to another, which works the same muscles, it’s fine. So for example you wouldn’t want to do wall sits straight into goblet squats, but looks like you have avoided that well. If you need be to move any around on the list, just say, but you can also tick the check boxes as you go now. Great work Rebecca.

170 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-6)

Some serious distance here so make sure you prepare well. Take fuel and water, make sure you are wearing the right clothing for the conditions. The longer the run, the more important preparation becomes.

Enjoyed it and joining up with Mark, Chrissie and particularly Sarah T worked well. Seemed that Sarah and I were about the same place so we looped back from Mark and Chrissie. Pace was slower than I’d hoped for (in my head I was targeting 15 miles) but appreciated the company running and given it was icy so I’m okay with it, overall good run. Watch died (probably due to the 🥶 ) so wasn’t sure of timing – hence a few mins over
Superb. I think when it comes to trail marathons, which is what you’ve entered, ignoring the pace is important, as lots of things will slow you down. So it’s good to have that mindset on these runs where distance doesn’t matter too much. Time on feet is what’s important. For some perspective, my marathon pace has been 8 min milling. But when I did my 50k it was 9:30 per mile. Glad you were able to join the others as that can make a big difference when out for this long. Awesome work Rebecca.
