Week Commencing: 1st June 26

Choose Day👇

Posting this with a little uncertainty surrounding the ankle still, so if that is a problem let me know. I’ve tweaked Tuesday from the original plan to put in a first threshold session. I’d be interested to hear your feedback on the two sessions this week and what you preferred and found more enjoyable and productive. Any questions about the threshold session let me know. But all being well, a bit week on the cards with 145pts on the table. Keep up the great work James.

Enjoyed the session was I settled into it.
First 5 mins felt tough in the first interval but settled in well
Sat in my heart rate zones well. Was surprised how much hard I had to push for the last one.
To get under that 5km pace in a training session is always tough, but working hard like that just sets us up well for when the times comes in a race to find that extra gear. Awesome work James. A fantastic day of training.

60 Mins Run

Really enjoyed this easy run. Went out early in the morning & felt good.
Listened to. Peloton class while out & something they said on it made me think. It was “Enjoy the simplicity of running”
Something I sometime forget & I’ll try think about when doing my easy runs.
It’s a beautiful thing when you really grasp that. And it’s why I do like to pick a flat route for my easy runs and really focus on moving well, and keeping that heart rate down. I think the importance of getting these runs done correctly, and the right intensity, whilst well published is still undervalued, and probably the mistake most runners make.

Nice 45 min bike, took a slightly easier class than normal but enjoyed spinning my legs out.
Top work James, always like this alternative and good to listen to the body some weeks when picking the intensity.

Went out around 5pm bit of an odd time.
First 2 intervals felt awful but actually the last 2 I felt really comfortable.
Good session.
It’s funny you say that, because I did my threshold last week and reps 1 & 2 I was like, why does this feel so hard? But the last rep, I felt so much better and was running faster. So a good lesson to learn for similar sessions. Top work James

Nice easy 2 hours run with Chris. Comfortable throughout, no issues.
2 hours is a long time as well. So to be able to bash that out comfortably is such a good thing to be able to do. Awesome work James. Another strong week banked.
