We did have 26km at marathon pace in the plan. One thought I had was 5km before the race at MP? But then logistically this would be a nightmare at PW as it’s really congested near the start, so I think you’re better off running this as a half marathon. There’s plenty of pacers. 1:45 and 1:50 (if you wanted to be more cautious). But Royal Parks last October shows your capable of the quicker time if you wanted to have a crack at the PB. We’ve got a lighter week on the schedule next week as well which would help if you wanted to go for a fast one. Happy to discuss. Keep it easy in the build up though so you are well rested for Sunday.

If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.

Swapped today & tomorrow so not doing back to back strength ✌🏻
Smart!! I like your thinking. Well done Lucy

Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.

Followed your advice and didn’t progress anything BUT I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW I COULD HAVE DONE OK?
πŸ˜‚ Point taken!!! Good use of caps. Yeah keep it sensible for now. Too close to be pushing hard, says the bloke that increased most of his weights in the gym yesterday πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ Just for future reference I ran with my friend Claire Thomas today. I think you’ve met her. I mention it because she lives in Sedlescombe, as does another runner I know called Fleur who is also speedy like you two. Their work schedules are a bit all over the place but might be the possibility of running with them at some stage over the next 6 months or so, especially those easy runs where you can have a chat. I can possibly help put you in contact with them if it’s something you might be interested in. A chance to run with runners you age and speed without the need to drive all the way into Hastings. Would be better once the trails dry up too as will give you more options for interesting routes.

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.

Easy pace is feeling pretty close to marathon pace these days!
That’s a good sign your fitness is improving. Well done on the run Lucy

Stick to your goal pace early on and it should feel easy. Dig deep in those final 5km to achieve your goal. The biggest mistake you can make is getting swept along in the early stages and going off too fast.

HELL YEH πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ’ͺ🏻πŸ’ͺ🏻
Well that went well. What a fantastic time, congrats on the PB, you’re pretty good at this running lark and sounds like there are even quicker HMs in there in the future. Thanks for making me look good.
