Recovery week so we drop back, hence only 3 runs. These are crucial and allow us to push on for the next 3 weeks of training and increase the pts. If you wanted to join the Tuesday gang the evening session is only worth a few additional pts. Manami who is also chasing sub 4 in the Spring has the same marathon session this week. Hers is currently scheduled for Sunday, but it might be possible to team you up if that’s something you wanted to consider. Your next 2 big marathon sessions also align with her so having a training partner like that could help, albeit you might prefer doing them solo with your tunes on.

A good opportunity to practice some marathon pace on your long run. Crucial if you have a time in mind. Also sometimes a good option to add some variety to a normal 2 hour long run.

Loved this. Pace a bit fast but I made a banging rainy day playlist and it’s honestly impossible maintaining easy pace when River Deep Mountain High is playing
πŸ˜‚ I think 4 hour pace is conservative for you, so I think training a bit quicker is good. But given it’s your first marathon and the foot concern it’s still a smart target. But long term, if you do more marathons I think you’re better than that. Well done Lucy

See how you fair with this session for now and we can always make some changes. It’s a strong all round workout that covers all fundamental movement patterns along with all the key muscle groups. If there is any area you feel is particularly weak and needs work I can add different exercises in. I like to keep the S&C simple and those that have stuck to their routines and not made continual changes have made real progress.

Bit of a bad back so swapped RDL for leg curls
Smart. Stretching can help massively for a bad back. I had sciatica when I was 20. It was the worst, have done back stretches pretty much every day since. Touch wood it’s never come back but I do still occasionally get some issues. I’ll be adding some stretching routines to the dashboard soon, so just shout if you want one for your back and I’ll get it sorted for next week.

The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

Whoops thought this was 50 mins. So I did stick to the plan but it was the made up plan in my head rather than the one you wrote πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
πŸ˜‚ So if you thought it was 50 mins, why did you run 54? Obviously just kidding. A few extra mins never hurt anyone. Well done Lucy
