A slight change to the original plan but I have put the Spring 5K in there. Apologies if you are not available for that. But would be a good one to run, and gives you two days rest after the long adventure on Sunday. Any issues just let me know, but we hit that 125 target again which feels right at the moment. Keep up the great work Michelle
“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
So slightly more challenging and time consuming. To save time you can superset some exercises. What does that mean? Well rather than having 60 seconds recovery after your Kettlebell Swings, use that 60 seconds to do the Farmers Walk. And then go back to the Kettlebell Swings again. So you’d alternative 2 exercises and once, then have a short break before doing the same again. It saves as much as 15 mins that you’d otherwise just be standing around. Any issues let me know.
I’m a big fan of consistent splits. With any race avoiding getting swept away with the crowds is key, so focus on that early pace and hold back, settle into a rhythm. Km 4 is often the hardest, so zone in on 4 and dig deep. You got this!
Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

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.
