40 Mins Swim
Zone 2: Easy
Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training. Have fun!
A recovery week in terms of pts target. If you did want to come and join us Tuesday evening, let me know and I can tweak things. Obviously Sunday is a big session as that will only be 4 weeks out from Paddock Wood (or Eastbourne). Keep up the good work Lou

Quality 10k session. These are the runs where the magic happens.
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Keep that heart rate in Zone 2. You might feel like RPE is higher, as it’s a tough exercise, but a good opportunity to really improve your aerobic engine without the heavy impact of running.

A big half marathon session. Important to find that goal pace in training and this session replicates the race well with the RPE increasing with each interval.
