So a few things to point out. No need for legs S&C this week. It is the end of this first plan. Really hope you want to continue, at least til HHM. Give me the nod and I’ll get cracking on the next plan. There is also scope for a week off, but perhaps if you feel you’re ready to keep training, we can bank that, often at this time of year illness creeps in somewhere, so having a week off banked can help if that does happen, hopefully it won’t. Any issues let me know but keep up the great work Glenn.
Good solid week, finishing with a strong solo park run. Might get a chance to a proper parkrun next Saturday, so will try not to over indulge at Christmas 🙂
Another excellent week Glenn. Loving the consistency. That’s what it’s all about. Bit unlucky you’ve not had the opportunity to run a parkrun in recent weeks as I’m sure you’re in PB shape. Keep doing what you’re doing and those improvements will continue.
A really quick 12 minute core workout!! 30s recovery between reps. Click on the exercise to view a Tutorial.
Recoveries: Take 2-3 mins after the 8 min rep and 60s in between the 60 second reps.
A tough 5k session and the challenge is to see if you can hold your 5k pace in the 2nd 8 min rep when the legs are tired and you’re feeling fatigued.

The only real mistake you can make here is going too fast. Try and pick a flat route as well. Hills will push that RPE too high.

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.
