The 150 mins represents HHM. But only do that if you are comfortable entering. If not we can finish this plan with a 2 hour run instead. But it would be great if you could take part. Forget the time, walk some of the hills if you need to, but it would just be nice to be part of such a brilliant event. I know there’s quite a few of my team going for around 150 mins so an opportunity to run with them if you wanted. Let me know your plans and I can easily change it up.

A really good session to do as a group the week in the lead up to a half marathon. It gives you an opportunity to run a few miles at goal pace and also get some speed in the legs. Be sure to stick to HM pace though, any quicker and it defies the object of the session and you will be tired on race day.

Couldn’t get to track so completed session by home. Absolutely loved that and the little increase in speed at the end. Felt strong and in complete control throughout 😀
It’s a good session that one and glad you enjoyed it. HM pace for that length of time should always feel comfortable and then it’s nice to inject that little bit of speed at the end. Well done Sally.

45 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace

RPE: 3

It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 45 minute swim replaces an easy 45 minute run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.

Solid strong session completed 😀 Session was actually 48 mins long as I forgot to start my watch at the start of the warm-up as pressed wrong button 🤣🤣
Bonus point coming your way in that case. Excellent work Sally. A really good compliment to the running you are doing.

Zone 2: Easy

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

Was going to club run this evening, but couldn’t resist a lone run in the sun and some music. A lovely, enjoyable hour and could have kept running 😀
It was nice out there right. Managed an hour myself albeit the wind was a little bit of a bugger on the seafront. But a lovely day to be a runner. Well done Sally.

Love this workout as I have equipment to be able to do this at home on my patio in the sun 😀 Lovely session, feeling strong and the bonus of some vitamin D 😀
That’s a great option to have. To be honest a lot of my runners do S&C at home. I think too many people use the machines in the gym and they are actually not great as they target individual muscles, where as an exercise like a squat or plank is going to work 3 or 4 muscles in one go. So you can’t beat them. Awesome work.

Zone 2

All about time on feet. Don’t focus on pace. Instead keep that effort level down and concentrate on good running economy. Fuelling and hydration key too.

I left this until Friday evening to enter as I was so unsure and thinking about it I felt so nervous and weary. Training runs have been great and have generally felt good on most of them, but just had niggles in the back of my mind of not doing it 🤣🤣 I genuinely had no thought on time or anything and just wanted to get round. But had told myself if I could get near to 2:30 I would be happy as I knew I had not done any real hill training etc and I don’t like running when it’s warm and the sun is out 🤣🤣 So to have my watch time stopped at a 2:28 I was deep down ecstatic and so proud of myself. As you know having battled my illness for 2.5yrs and having to mentally accept that I do now have a new version of limitations to even just get round again was something I never thought I would do 😀 I had a few places where I walked for about 20-30 secs but I was completely ok with that. I did start off too quickly and all my miles were either quicker by a minute of what o have been running or similar pace which surprised me with the climbs etc. The HR was high throughout and I couldn’t seem to get this lower today 🤣 But honestly a massive thank you for your support and plan and giving me in the end the confidence to bite the bullet and enter and get round when I never thought it would be possible again 😀
So pleased to hear this and I think you’ve come so far in the 10 weeks we have been running together. To go from the struggles you’ve had to endure to be able to run the HHM again is massive, and hopefully going forward it’s just the beginning of your fitness journey again. Really proud of you Sally and no doubt inspiring others who might be struggling right now to keep the faith. At least 10 bonus points for those hills.
