Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.
The longest run of the plan, another 210 mins still to come, but that is obviously the key run this week. Given we are a little short on the overall training % if you feel good any of the others days, an extra 10 mins here or there will help boost the total training. But keep going Lucy. Two more big long runs left before London. I’ve also good Hastings Half still in the plan. Is that a race you hope to do?
