I’ve tweaked it. We can leave out the 2nd S&C this week because we get a similar pts total from Sunday’s run and don’t want to overdo things.

Always feel free to tweak a few exercises if you want, just try and avoid working the same muscle groups twice.
Don’t go off too fast as 20 reps is a lot. RPE towards the end of each rep should be a 9 and pace will be towards the lower end or just under your 3k targets. Consistency is the key.
If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.
Flexibility is definitely very important to runners and yoga can help in that area!
The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.
