We need to take that recovery week that we were going to take on the weekend of your course. So no long run. But we’ve got the hills in there as we prepare for HHM, and we’ve got the HM tempo session to so you can practice race pace. As well as some additional S&C. Any issues with those sessions let me know. But this looks a good week and nice to take a break from the long run Sunday. Keep up the great work Kirsty.

A really good home workout for the core and legs. If new to this, don’t worry about hitting the seconds or reps. Do what you can and slowly build up to the targets.

For example you might find you can only hold a plank for 20 seconds at first, which is fine. Don’t push too hard that you get injured. You’ll soon get strong and be able to add more seconds.

Nice to mix it up a bit! Gosh that last wall sit was tough 😬
gotta love a wall sit. Great work Kirsty

Zone 2: Easy

Find a hilly route and push the pace a little. The uphills will naturally make the RPE increase. Try to attack the downhills as well, then ease off a touch on the flat. This is a session though so effort should be quite high during the 40 mins on.

Well I did them…… must learn to like them a bit more
Hills are never easy. So great work for ticking off what is a very tough session. I think the key is mental. So when you get to those hills at HHM you can just remind yourself of these sessions and tell yourself you are ready. That confidence makes such a different. A mindset of “I can do this” compared to “this is too much” is everything. So really well done Kirsty.

Sometimes a 30 minute shake out can help recovery or just give you some much needed head space. Keep it easy. Strides are crucial here.

20mins Strides TWR My friend Andrea ran her longest run with us! 😻 30 min non stop! I see why you love coaching! I’m on such a high for her! Horrid head wind too!!!!
A cheeky extra 20 mins. Where did that come from? 😜 Well done though and great to hear TWR is going so well. It’s really satisfying isn’t it. Well done Kirsty!!

Did I feel like that-nope!!! Did it!!! 💪 also next week back to different S&C?
Great work Kirsty. Always feels better for getting it done right? Well spotted. I’m hoping to revamp all S&C after my short break, to offer more structure and variety for the team as a whole. But keep letting me know if anything looks wrong. My brain is a bit frazzled with all the background work I have done, hence the mistakes.

Zone 2: Easy

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.

Yucky horrid headwind!!!!! Also my good foot feeling sore…. Trying to get ahead of it before it’s too bad… and S&C today or tomorrow!
Tough in the wind at the moment. Sorry to hear about the foot, hopefully just a niggle which does sort itself out soon. But still top work on getting the session done and working hard. They all add up and some solid points in the training bank.

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

Ran around in circles trying to find Amanda 🥴 but lush when we did meet☺️ proper easy!
😂 I’ve often missed my running buddy on a long run. Who’d have thought meeting en route could be so challenging. Well done Kirsty, glad you found her
