One of the biggest mistakes I see is runners not taking enough rest after a big race. It’s how I got injured last winter coming back too soon after my marathon. If you wanted to bring the 60 min run forward to Wednesday that would be ok, but keep it light. Thursday is possible the AC track, or I can set a session for you if you prefer. The 160 mins would ideally be on the trails, with your pack on and fuel, water etc to get you ready for the 50k. Even better if you can do it on the South Downs Way. Any problems just ask. The plans are always super flexible if you do want to change things, especially at first whilst I begin to learn what works best for you.

A challenging but rewarding session where you can experience what it feels like to run at different paces.
It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.
