“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
I know you mentioned this weekend was an issue, but I’ve put some runs in but short ones in case they are possible? If not that’s fine, I’m not going to force anyone to run on days that are unavailable. If the weekend is right off and you feel ok Thursday perhaps a 3rd run instead of S&C, although that would be 3 days on the spin. Let me know how you want to play it and I can switch things around.

80 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
8 x 100 metre Strides (RPE: 8)
60 Second Recoveries
Try and keep it easy. It all depends on your current level. If slowly adding time to your long run the last 10-20 mins might be tough. Focus on good form. Do those strides and account 15 mins at the end to get them done.
2km WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
1km @ 10K Pace (RPE: 7)
200 Metres @ 3K Pace (RPE: 8)

x 6
2km CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
I love this session. It’s very challenging. To clarify it’s reps of 1200 metres with the last 200 metres at a quicker pace. If you get the pace right for the 1k part of the rep, there should be a little bit of energy left to increase the speed for 200 metres at the end. You’ll be working really hard at that point. Enjoy. You Got This.

70 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Keep the effort level down on these easy runs and focus on good running mechanics.
Running with others can reduce perceived effort so parkrun is a good option as an alternative speed session. 10 mins easy WU & CD please.
