“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
Another decent week including the Tuesday efforts with my gang. Then a bit of quicker pace for the Sunday long run. The S&C going forward, which I know isn’t as much fun as running is very important as it will reduce that risk of injury. Any problems let me know. Let’s make this another strong week.

10 Mins WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2)
4 Mins @ 5K Pace (RPE: 8)
2 Mins Recovery
x 5
10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Ideally you’re looking to match or beat your current 5k pace. This is a really simple but effective session. Working to time rather than distance allows you to do these sessions with runners of different ability. Very best of luck,
*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.

Just an opportunity to get some more miles in at marathon pace and really dial those splits in.
