Recoveries: 30-60s between sets. Superset with other exercises if time is limited.
A good workout focusing primarily on arms. So whilst not a priority as a runner to have a strong upper body it can help with our confidence.
I’ve put the plan up as normal. Do what you can. No expectations from my end, but the running and head space might help. Hear to chat if need be.

Combining both the legs and core into one good session can offer some good variety.Β Be sure to be sensible if you do change up any of your weights or use different exercises.
Recoveries: 90 seconds all reps
Credit TRC for this one. Imperative to stick to half marathon pace in that first 15 minute tempo. Otherwise you’ll be too fatigued to hit target 5k pace in the shorter reps.
Great session. If short on time superset a few exercises. Let’s do this πͺ
7km @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
7km @ Marathon Pace (RPE: 5)
7km @ Half Marathon Pace (RPE: 6)
A really good half marathon session. Slowly increasing the pace and finishing at goal pace on tired legs. Those last 7km should be tough but keep working hard to maintain that pace. You got this!!
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.
