A little easier this week with only 3 runs, but two of them are excellent sessions and perfect for HHM in particular. We are at that stage where every session can count towards what we achieve on race day. So use that as motivation to keep working hard. It’s been great seeing your progress to this point. Keep up the great work Glenn.

Zone 2: Easy

Find a location where you can pick different points on the hill. Lamp posts are great. So for example you would run to the first lamppost and back to the bottom of the hill. Then to the second lamppost and back. Keep making the reps longer until you hit 20 mins, and then start making the reps shorter again.

Focus on effort level rather than pace or heart rate as both will fluctuate depending if you are going up or down the hill

Really liked this session
It is a good one, shame Conal wasn’t there (he’s doing Seville marathon Sunday), but again very impressed with your effort and pace. Well done Glenn.

If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.

Made a real effort to keep rpe down. Averaged 8:46/mile but heart rate was still 150+ for the run which still seems quite high
It’s not too bad. Ideally we’d be under 140 but it might just be inaccurate data. You should be able to notice the HR compared with RPE. I wouldn’t obsess about it, but just having that knowledge that slower and lower RPE on these runs is more beneficial that picking up the pace is important. You’ll find as you fitness continues to improve your HR should drop.

Big half marathon session. If you can nail your goal pace on these splits then you are nicely set up to achieve your time on race day. Dig deep. These are the runs that matter the most.

All good despite wet/windy conditions
Nice, decent pace given the conditions. Let’s hope HHM is much better than today. Well done Glenn.
