Hopefully this fits in ok with the trip. I’ve put Gym S&C and the Magic Stairs instead of circuits again this week. You could tweak the weekend as well depending what’s available in Tenerife. Perhaps some more cross training again rather than smashing out a 90 min long run in the heat. Either way I hope you have a fantastic time and safe travels.

Tough session this and the idea is to try and keep those 8 minute reps consistently at 5k pace. The first one will feel comfortable, but the last one will feel like hell. The middle part of the session is to inject some speed in the legs and induce fatigue and possibly some lactic, so you have to work hard in that final rep.

No points deduction for me! ๐Ÿ˜† I feel strong doing 3 mins. At 8 min miling. Tried to hold my pace on the last 8 mins but I did need a wee and I was tired. Body combat was same old ๐Ÿคฃwill miss it next week. In the last week at Bannatynes I dropped my air pod in the stair master got it out only to lose my air pods at the gym on Friday and today my band stopped working. Iโ€™m a menace
Great track session Lou and well done on the WU & CD too. I don’t get airpods, the risk of them falling out would just stress me out. Give me a big pair of over the air headphones any day. Great way to start the new week Lou.

A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Find the level which means your heart rate is in zone 2. If you go other that, reduce the level. It’s that simple.

Hit the gym at the wrong time again. People everywhere! So I had to do 30 mins then the stepper then another 30 min New pb 93 floors
Great work Lou. Ah the gym at the wrong time is awful right. Good idea to jump on the Stair Climber as soon as it became available. Well done on your PB. That 100 flights is a realistic target now, but don’t be in a hurry to get there.

60 Mins Run

Zone 2: Easy

8 x 100 Meter Strides

Zone 7: 3K

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.

Didnโ€™t worry so much about pace tonight was having a chat about how we arenโ€™t feeling the love for Hastings runners and the committee with Cassie. I said I feel like we are a captainless ship. I did say Iโ€™ll feel better when walk to run is back as thatโ€™s always really positive. Cassie might come and help this year. Did 8 strides! 4 were racing Nick. Lindsey said sheโ€™d do some with me and then Nick said I can beat Lindsey. I said come on then! Well โ€ฆ. He wasnโ€™t expecting to struggle to keep with me ๐Ÿ˜† he actually said you are fast and I donโ€™t mean that as a joke! I took that as a compliment โ˜บ๏ธ
Ah that is nice to hear that. You’ve always had that turn of speed so not surprised he was impressed. I think the committee need to be careful and not make decisions based purely on what suits them. That appears to be their approach at the moment. I’m trying to waste as little time as possible although Ash’s lack of marshalling last year has been discussed in our house today. Neither him or Jess have ever volunteered at parkrun ๐Ÿค Well done on your run though. If I don’t speak to you before safe travels.

“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”

Was climbing the walls so did 30 min s&c found a balanced work out on one of my old weeks
๐Ÿคฏ No worries. Well done for completing. I’m hoping you read this, as I realise certain things have upset you. Take some time, enjoy the holiday, but please rethink your decision about Team Orange. Cos between us we are going to fucking smash 2026 if you follow the same routine you have been. And I really want to be part of that journey. I can say this now, I might not be the best coach in the world, and still learning, but you will never find anyone else who gives as much of a shit about both your fitness and your wellbeing as me. Apologies for swearing twice in this message. I rarely do that. Let’s throw in a third for good luck. Fuck!!

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.

Only managed 60 but did 4 hill strides with Paul! There is photographic evidence ๐Ÿคฃ Think Iโ€™m ok for points because I got some for s&c
Well done Lou. Hill strides looked fun. I’m pretty sure you will be fine for pts, plus you have plenty banked from previous weeks. Will be checking the weekly feedback soon. Monday’s are manic. The 100% club is one of the best ideas I’ve ever had but the consequence now is everyone leaves feedback all the time, hence Monday is manic ๐Ÿ˜‚ But I like it that way.
