20 Mins Stair Climber
Zone 2: Easy
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Find the level which means your heart rate is in zone 2. If you go other that, reduce the level. It’s that simple.
Switch up and quite heavy to start but still a really good total on the table if all goes well. Any problems let me know.

Alternative Exercises:
Cable Torso Rotation – Russian Twist
Goblet Squat – Leg Press & Single Leg Press
Kettle Bell Romanian Deadlift – Barbell Deadlift
Kettle Bell Bent Over Row – Any pull machine
Chest Press – Shoulder Press
Some other good options I like, seated leg curl, ab crunch, farmers carry., abductor and adductor machines.
Maintaining your current 5k pace will get progressively more challenging as a session unfolds. So breaking it down in this nature should allow you to maintain that pace for the whole session.
If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.
