So I’ve put 40 min at MP for Tuesdays run, albeit it was a bit quicker than that. For Wednesday I would like you to try and slow down. If we keep the effort easy you’re actually getting more benefits that running quicker. It might be tough at first but long term by slowing the easy runs down you will become fitter and a better runner.

Each Sunday before Worthing we will smash out a HM session, so come the 3rd May that pace will feel comfortable and looking at your recent runs, if conditions are good on the day, no reason you can’t be challenging a PB there. Any questions just ask. No question is too silly.

Just an opportunity to get some more miles in at marathon pace and really dial those splits in. Come race day we want marathon pace to feel comfortable.

Did the run Monday 6.5m 55 mins 8.27 mile pace
Well done Iain. Yeah I tweaked the session to try and best reflect what you did. Hopefully the paces and points give you an idea of my approach. I think the change in pace at first will be tough for you and might be frustrating but it’s trusting the science is correct and knowing that you’re actually getting fitter by doing that. Any issues with the dashboard just ask.

Zone 2: Easy

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

1 hr 0 mins 17 secs 6.26m Mile 1 9.42 Mile 2. 9.33 Mile 3. 9.40 Mile 4. 9.35 Mile 5. 9.38 Mile 6. 9.33 Mile 0.26. 9.55 Overall – 9.38 Pleased with the pace control as it is something I have struggled with
4am club. Wow, I’m impressed. But also very happy about the pace as this will definitely help you become a better all round runner. It’s tough at first and feels counter productive but it’s definitely beneficial. Great work Iain, and thanks for sharing the splits, the more data the better.

x 6

A total of 13 miles, so you cover the distance of a half marathon, but only 6 of those miles are at your target pace. A good chance to get some miles in at goal pace. Adds some variety to your long run as well. If the route isn’t flat or conditions are challenging focus on RPE over pace. It’s not always essential to hit goal pace in these sessions. Obviously into a strong headwind you will be slower.

Good run, enjoyed the mixed paces. HM pace miles got harder as the run progressed but achieved it. 13.16 miles. 1 hour 56 mins 18 secs. Mile 1: 9.35. Mile 2: 8.07. Mile 3: 9.29. Mile 4: 8.02. Mile 5: 9.36. Mile 6: 8.07. Mile 7: 9.30. Mile 8: 8.04. Mile 9: 9.24. Mile 10: 8.04. Mile 11: 9.30. Mile 12: 8.08. Mile 13: 9.29. Mile 0.16: 7.53. Overall pace: 8.50.
Glad you enjoyed it. This change in pace and sessions like this can offer real variety and break down a long run nicely. Pacing was fantastic, really impressed, especially for a first attempt. And respect for getting up and out so early. Awesome work Ian. Week 1 is a roaring success.
