Some of us will be meeting up Monday evening for a little session if you wanted to join. There is also the HR Spring 5K on Wednesday as another possibility, if you are free? Let me know if that one appeals and we can switch things around. Another strong week though as we continue to lay down the foundations for progression.

200 Metres @ Target Times (RPE: 9)
60 Sec Recovery

2km CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
A real opportunity to work on both speed and good running economy. Train faster to race faster. Love 200s. Go get ’em!
“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
*reps/seconds on both sides
If some of the sets/reps are too demanding at first, just do what you can, you can always build up to 60s slowly. Wall sits and planks in particular can be tough, so just go to the point you feel you need to stop and repeat that time, even if it’s only 20s.
A stretching routine you can do daily to help with your flexibility. 30 seconds for each stretch is plenty.
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.

Slowly adding time to your longer runs is the way forward. Keep the effort level down and continue to check in with your form.
