Working hard this week. Soz! Depending what they do on Wednesday we might want to tweak Friday. I’ve been kind to you on the basis they often do short reps at 5k pace at BRT and we don’t want to be doing that twice in 3 days, hence the 5 x 1km in Zone 5. Then the Sunday long run to keep that endurance. Worth noting next week is easier, but this is real chance to push that fitness up a few %. Go smash it Jamie. Any problems, shout.

*reps/seconds on both sides
A really good home workout for the core and legs. If new to this, don’t worry about hitting the seconds or reps. Do what you can and slowly build up to the targets.
For example you might find you can only hold a plank for 20 seconds at first, which is fine. Don’t push too hard that you get injured. You’ll soon get strong and be able to add more seconds.
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.

It all depends on the nature of the session as to how hard you want to work. The longer the reps, the slightly slower the pace will be. Or if doing hills, focus on RPE rather than pace. But you always want to be working hard to ensure you make the necessary gains.
Try and hit a pace somewhere in Zone 5: 10k. If the route is not flat you can focus on heart rate instead and try to avoid drifting into Zone 6. This should feel comfortably hard.
