Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.
What a brilliant week to be a runner. I am so excited. You’ve done so well with your long runs during the build up to this you should be confident you can get round. 150 mins is a good target I feel and means you can run with the Sue’s if you wanted. No need to put any pressure on yourself, just go out there and enjoy it. Very best of luck Lou.

Recoveries: 120 Secs for the 12 mins, 60 Seconds for the 1 min reps.
A really good session to do as a group the week in the lead up to a half marathon. It gives you an opportunity to run a few miles at goal pace and also get some speed in the legs. Be sure to stick to HM pace though, any quicker and it defies the object of the session and you will be tired on race day.

60 Second Recoveries
I had to create a new session for you guys. Have fun. 60 mins easy is perfect in terms of training load. Don’t forget those strides as well (if highlighted)

Stick to your goal pace early on and it should feel easy. Dig deep in those final 5km to achieve your goal. The biggest mistake you can make is getting swept along in the early stages and going off too fast.
