Another solid week. Monday’s session is a good one to get some speed in the legs. Thursday you could combine parkrun with the tempo session if you wanted. Any problems let me know as I appreciate this week might need changes. Happy New Year Steve.

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.
