Long Run – 180 Mins

LOAD: 590

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

Time to make sure your fuelling and hydration is on point. 30-60g of carbs per hour. The longer the run goes on the tougher it will get.

We’ve got one more session next week. Hopefully you’ll get close to 20 miles here in 3 hours.

PACE

Good run. Really pretty trail section from Kev’s house, then a straightforward few miles around the streets. It was a bit hilly so the pace wasn’t great. For that reason I did an extra twelve minutes just to round it up to nineteen miles. Feels good to have done that distance. This time last year my longest run was 19.5 so hope that’s far enough. Tired legs at the end but I’ve slept for two hours this afternoon and will focus on recovery. Wrapped up warm, pressure socks on.

Great stuff Conal. I think the time on feet is more important than the exact mileage. As you say, very close to what you did pre Brighton, plus the hills here count for a lot. Sounds like a fun run. Sorry I didn’t join you. I need something a bit lighter in terms of elevation and occasional crave a solo run for my own headspace.
