4 runs might seem like a lot on paper, but all of them are easy. Keep the pace, RPE and HR down. Don’t be afraid to walk some hills to do that. We can build a really good base doing easy runs and the main reason is because of the issues you had last week. The easier we keep it, the less risk of injury. Then if you feel better next week, we can add in a bit of pace again. Any problems let me know, take extra rest if the body craves it.

Felt tired this morning after the long run yesterday. (my circuit sessions are always 7 am, which can be tough after long run day.) whilst I was tired today, it felt more manageable than it has ever done. Which is good, can definitely see an improvement in my abilities to recover from a long run.
That’s a great sign, to recover that quickly from a long run shows the fitness must be improving. Well done Lucy, great start to the week.

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate. Don’t forget your strides. Very important. 30-60 seconds recovery between strides.

Completed this. A little less than 50 mins as was running out of time. I had a playlist on to get me thinking about my cadence (songs of 170-180bpm) and it really helped getting in a rhythm. Strides felt good, felt like I had some speed and the recovery was okay in between them. Ankles feeling okay afterwards – I can tell I have been pushing them, but they aren’t at the same point they were last week
Glad the ankles are feeling better and well done on the strides. Always best to prioritise them over 10 mins of easy running. No worries about the missed mins, we can only use the time we have available to us. Great work Lucy.

Long runs are key. Fuel and hydrate well & join a group if you can.

I have been away this weekend, I had planned to do this run but we had a very busy day and I just did not have the energy
That’s a shame, but important to listen to the body and take rest when need be. We can only do what we can in the time we have available to us. More important long runs coming up as well.

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.

Again away this weekend (Stockholm) I just did not manage to fit this in
I hope you had a nice time away though?
