Long Run – 180 Mins

LOAD: 59

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.

You’ve proven already you can do this. Am I right in thinking you’re not doing Newcastle Half? I did check back through out conversations but couldn’t find any mention of it. Apologies if you are.

RPE

😁 Good pace given the conditions/route

PACE

Really happy with today. Did just over 30mins before the race, few minutes break then the half marathon. Was a bit hilly and got quite hot in the 2nd half but i felt very relaxed and extremely strong. Probably because for once I wasn’t thinking about my own race (trying to go all out for a PB pace) and concentrating on helping my friend – i just tried to dial into a consistent splits and churn out the km’s. Found it really rewarding. It was good knowing that I was very comfortable over this distance x pace. Could of definitely kept it going for another 10k, (or maybe more!?)

This is great!! Pacing is so rewarding and I highly recommend it. I think perhaps we should try and do something similar later in the plan if the opportunity presents itself? This also shows if you get the pacing right then you can keep going for a long time. I’m very happy and glad you enjoyed this so much. Well done Andy.
