Another strong week. Hills on Tuesday and the long run Sunday are both great practice for HHM. Any problems let me know. We could possible squeeze in another short run if you wanted.

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.
Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜
Flexibility is definitely very important to runners and yoga can help in that area!

“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
140 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-6)
Keep the long runs at a low effort level. Obviously the longer the time wears on the harder the run will become. Make sure you hydrate and take fuel with you.
