I have populated the schedule this week but the most important thing is making sure the ankle is ok. So I’ve not set a target in terms of pts as anything you achieve this week will be a bonus. I don’t want you to rush back. Keep me posted how it feels and we can go from there. Mix up the S&C if you have your own core/upper body routine you want to smash out. Then once you feel ok again we can pick up with the original plan.

60 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 60 minute swim replaces an easy run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.
If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.
Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
Get those guns firing! Take 30 seconds recovery between sets.
80 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Try and keep it easy. It all depends on your current level. If slowly adding time to your long run the last 10-20 mins might be tough. Focus on good form.
