60 Mins Easy to Marathon Pace

LOAD: 20

20 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2)
20 Mins @ Steady Pace (RPE: 3)
20 Mins @ Marathon Pace (RPE: 4)

Rather than just head out and do 60 mins easy, this goes through the gears a little and will hopefully help you improve running economy as the speed picks up a little. It’s still a light session but makes the easy runs more interesting. Best done on the flat to hit consistent paces.

An opportunity just to practice Sunday’s pace a little here!

Hi run this although it was rather hot and I done it with a rather painful foot as I managed to hurt it at work tripping on my air line no idea what I have done, hopefully it will be ok for the weekend. Also I have realised my vapourflys are completely dead now so the new ones have got to be used now (they don’t last long). I made the last 20min progressive not totally on purpose juat found the second mile was quicker than the first so thought what the hell let’s make the last one faster still.

Hope the foot is ok. If it’s an impact injury, then it might just be a case of running with a little bit of discomfort for a while, but obviously keep an eye on it, this week. If you feel rest is better than one of the easy runs ahead of Sunday then that might be a good move. A solid session though and that’s the kind of thing I do in my training, spontaneously set myself little targets at the end. It’s good to do those things. Well done Steve, glad you enjoyed it too.
