9 POINTS
Enjoy. Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training.
I’ve stuck to the original plan but appreciate Sunday is going to rely on a quick recovery. So let’s see what happens, but we don’t want to ruin any hope you have of doing Run to the Sea by pushing too hard right now. So it might be a case of switching things up come Monday. But the pts target feels right.

“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Take a few minutes to warm up at find your stride but then push hard. You can real bang for your buck with just 20 mins on the stair climber. I hit around level 10 when doing these but find the right speed for you that you can maintain, but you find this tough.
20 Mins Elliptical (RPE: 6-7)
A good way to boost cardio whilst reducing the risk of injury. The elliptical can tone muscles and improve endurance whilst being gentle on your joints.
I had to create a new session for you guys. Have fun. 60 mins easy is perfect in terms of training load.

240 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-8)
All about time on feet. Don’t push the pace early on and ensure you are well hydrated and have fuel to take on at regular intervals.
