Long Run – 120 Mins

LOAD: 35

120 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-5)

2 hours is a long time to run and it’s likely it will get tough in the last 30 mins. So dig deep, focus on good form and keep going. You got this!

Running on tired legs here is the idea, to prepare yourself for what the 2nd half of the Run to the Sea is going to be like. So don’t hide from it, embrace it. Finding some hills here will also replicate the 2nd half of the race when you will be feeling tired. Be sure to practice your race day fuelling and hydration on this run. You got this!! You’re a superb runner remember.

Well that went much better than I anticipated. I know added more time than the plan had said but I needed to know that I could cover some distance as well for my own confidence. I was slightly dreading today’s run as I was worried I would walk a lot but I didn’t. I ran as many hills as I could. The incredibly steep ones I did walk. There were also a lot of stiles which does get exhausting . But I was pleased to be able to do 2 trail runs in a row, with elevation and still feel like I had more in me. I’m going to take that as a little win.

I think this was a brilliant weekend for you. Perfect prep, especially with so many trails and some challenging hills. From you feedback it sounds like the volume was just about right and hopefully a confidence boost ahead of the Run to the Sea. Excellent job Tina. I’m very happy.
