140 Minute Long Run

LOAD: 43

140 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-6)

Keep the long runs at a low effort level. Obviously the longer the time wears on the harder the run will become. Make sure you hydrate and take fuel with you.

This is the half marathon which I’ve just put as a long run! Don’t see the time as a target, if it takes longer then no issues. Time on feet is the most important thing at this stage of the plan. How are you set for fuelling, that will be very important as the mileage increases so we should have a discussion about that and whether you are happy with your fuelling strategy.

I had a niggle in my left hip yesterday but it was ok today

It’s amazing how our body can recover. But really well done. This is a huge positive to cover 2 and a half hours on your feet. Hopefully as the plan progresses we can discuss pacing etc and make a few small tweaks there, but given the conditions and the nature of this event I think it’s inevitable the pace will drop towards the end. Great work Jo. A big step forward so early in the plan.
