We are pushing the limits now to 112pts, so let me know how this load feels and if we need to ease back. Monday track is not ideal after a race. But if you feel ok and it’s the best day for efforts then we can roll with it. Just be wary you are more susceptible to injury doing 2 tough sessions in 2 days. But you’re running well right now so keep up the great work.
Good week overall fitted a lot in even if I felt it was all over the place.
Proves it can be done 👍🏼
Yeah you make a really good point there and I think having that flexibility is key. Just because you might not get the run done on the time or day initially planned, doesn’t mean you still can’t hit those targets. And in 2-3 months time, it’s those sessions (like the Sunday 90 mins) combined that make all the difference. Great work Sarah.

Don’t go off too fast as 20 reps is a lot. You should feel like you’re working at a very high effort level towards the last 15 seconds of each rep. Go get ’em!

Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

Sometimes it can be good to reduce the impact and get the heart rate up with some cross training. Plus spin classes can be great fun.
