The Monday and Tuesday evening sessions will continue throughout Christmas if you do have any time off work, that would allow you to join us? No worries if not. Another strong week though, working on the speed and another chance for a quick parkrun. Any problems let me know. I hope the back is better now. Keep up the great work Maria.
Much better week back on plan and felt good.
Excellent work Maria. 105pts which looking at your plan is a new record for you. And when you factor in it included a parkrun PB and a long run with the gang, I think we can say that is the best week so far. Slightly above the target but I’m not overly concerned given the recent missed sessions. It also gives me a good idea about the right level going forward. So lots of be positive about.

10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
A great 5k session to improve speed. Don’t got off too quick, so focus on your pace in those first few reps, then you’ll get an idea of how far you can run each rep. From there you can then pick up the pace and cadence for the 1 minute reps.

parkrun is the best!!! Every Saturday at 9am. A great opportunity to push our effort levels and run alongside other people. Make sure you get there nice and early for your WU & Strides. I normally aim for 8:15 to give myself plenty of time.
90 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
