I feel like we are working at the right level in terms of the pts target now. How we get there can be changed. I moved the long run from Sunday to Saturday so you can still do parkrun. There’s a lot of good stuff in there though. 3 runs, including efforts and the long run. 2 x S&C and 3 lots of cross training. Impressive. And hopefully not too many miles to make the niggles worse. Any issues let me know. Always happy to move stuff around.

Classic session. Super simple. The end result being you have a better understanding of your current time for a 5K. Work hard and ideally finish each rep a few seconds quicker than your current 5k pace.
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.
It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 45 minute swim replaces an easy 45 minute run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.
I had to create a new session for you guys. Have fun. 60 mins easy is perfect in terms of training load. Don’t forget those strides as well (if highlighted)
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.
Definitely need to change what you are doing based on my research. Often and little is the key to help you. The more you do this at home, the better.
A great way to get the heart pumping to some banging tunes. Have fun π
