Now we are talking. 90 mins, keep it easy. Starting to look at the possibility of a half marathon now in the autumn that the distance is picking up. Tuesday is the group session and likely to be the seafront this week. Maybe even Bexhill. If you can’t get over there, let me know and I can set a slightly different session that you could do in the park solo. But keep up the great work Susie.

Classic session. Super simple. The end result being you have a better understanding of your current time for a 5K. Work hard and ideally finish each rep a few seconds quicker than your current 5k pace.

I couldn’t finish this one, for a few reasons. I did 2 of the reps at below the 8 level. I think I’m a bit wary of pushing too hard for too long, as I’m not really used to pushing it. I feel like I can do endurance better than speed!
Ok, I will bear that in mind and when we do solo speed work we can focus more on the half marathon or 10k pace. I appreciate the honesty.

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.

Sorry. I was in London and got back late and tired. I meant to do it on Friday or at the weekend but didn’t.
No worries. Appreciate you being honest, sometimes the week can just get on top of us.

Zone 2: Easy

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.

Did this one! It was fine tho could quite keep my heart rate below 150, but not far off.
Great work Susie. It’s definitely easier to keep the HR low as you get fitter, but it’s a good to have an awareness of it now and you should find in time it starts to fall and you’ve able to run a bit faster at the same HR.

Zone 2: Easy

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.

Did this one too- pretty slowly due to the heat but I enjoyed it and it didn’t feel too hard. I did have to stop to buy cold water tho :)
You’re started to sound like a really smart runner. Keeping the easier runs that bit easier, and strategizing for the conditions. Sometimes people worry about pace, but on a run like it’s probably the least important thing, Time, effort, heart rate, all more important than our pace. Really well done Susie. A great way to finish the week.
