We ease right back this week to give you recovery after Sunday’s race. If you need extra time let me know. Hopefully the legs and foot inparticular don’t hurt too much after Brighton. Keep up the great work Kirsty.

Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
A good home workout for the legs. No weights needed, but if you do have some that will add to the difficulty. Recoveries around 30-60s. If time is limited then combined two exercises together. So whilst recovering from squats for example you could be doing your calf raises. This could save you as much as 15 mins.
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.
Get those guns firing! Take 30 seconds recovery between sets.

10 Mins WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2-3)
50 Mins @ HM Pace (RPE: 5-6)
10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2-3)
Practicing goal pace is a key part of any training plan. The more miles you can get done at goal pace the more comfortable it will feel on race day.
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
