So this is the last of the steady week before we ramp up the training and really start to push a little harder. If you did want to join one of the effort sessions now you are probably ready, although track Monday would be an easy session than the hills we are doing Tuesday. Any problems though let me know and keep up the consistency as that’s the key to progress. Well done Mike.

Zone 2: Easy

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.

Did 40 mins run, leaving efforts for later in the week, probably Friday. Took it slower with a decent-size hill up to Silverhill in the middle. Not too bad for recovering from a cold
Well done Mike. Sensible to make that switch if you were still feeling poorly.

Zone 2: Easy

A really good session where you can work on your speed and form. Pace is the most important thing to work on here. The quicker end of your zone 7, 3k pace, perhaps even dipping under.

Did pretty well but ran out of time to complete the session
That’s a shame. I’d say any effort session is likely to require at least 60 mins, sometimes more, so worth bearing in mind. But well done Mike for getting some speed in the legs.

Zone 2

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.

Went a bit longer on a 50 minute run on Sunday, so managed 10K. No monitoring of pace, went on feel and was a bit quicker than previous weeks
Nice, always happy if you feel like you want to add a bit of extra distance. A good way to make up for some missing pts from previous sessions if there is ever any to make up. Well done Mike
