95pts up for grabs. Speed sesh Tuesday, tempo run Sunday, east mile Thursday, 2 x S&C. A really good structured week with a bit of everything and lots of different paces to tackle. Any issues let me know but hope you can join us Tuesday as the short reps are always fun. Keep up the great work Matthew.

Recoveries:
90s except for 1 min reps which are 60s
Really push that pace here, especially on the 2s and 1s. A chance to really improve your pace and bring that 5k time down. Let’s do this!
*reps/seconds on both sides
If some of the sets/reps are too demanding at first, just do what you can, you can always build up to 60s slowly. Wall sits and planks in particular can be tough, so just go to the point you feel you need to stop and repeat that time, even if it’s only 20s.
A stretching routine you can do daily to help with your flexibility. 30 seconds for each stretch is plenty.
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.

If you are training for a specific time in a half marathon, getting some miles in at goal pace is key. If it’s early in your plan don’t worry too much if you’re little off pace at this stage. With the upcoming training that should improve over the weeks. In that scenario don’t give up, hold a consistent pace and RPE throughout.
