We continue to build but in a smart progressive way. 109pts up for grabs this week, biggest target so far. Keep up that consistency and you should continue to feel stronger on the easy runs. This weeks speed sessions is a bit of half marathon pace, so nothing too taxing but you should bank some decent miles as a result. Any issues just shout. Keep up the great work Chris.

Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training. Have fun!
It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.
A stretching routine you can do daily to help with your flexibility. 30 seconds for each stretch is plenty.
A good all round workout you can do at home. Simple but really effective. If you repeat this twice a week and slowly add to the weights you are going to make some good gains in the long run.
If you superset the exercises it should save time and hopefully make it achievable in around 60 mins.
A good opportunity to practice your half marathon goal pace during a midweek tempo run. Factor in hills and weather, which may effect pace, in which case nail the right RPE.

75 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Nice and easy!! Why 75 mins and not 60? To hit that training load target and ensure your plan is as consistent, week in week out as possible, to reduce that risk of injury.
