Get those guns firing! Take 30 seconds recovery between sets.
There’s a good alternative this week. The Hastings Runners Winter 5k. It would involve joining the club (ยฃ20 for the year), but once you have done that the races, including this one, are free. Will be a lot of the same faces that did Beckley. It would be shuffling a few things around, but that is fine. Let me know if you did want to do that race Sunday. But going along really well right now. If you wanted more rest days you could also combine some of the strength sessions together.

Always a favourite with the team! Keep that first rep at 5k pace and then start to ramp up that speed. Enjoy!
12 minutes. That’s all it takes. 30s recovery between reps.
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.
Slowly adding time to your longer runs is the way forward. Keep the effort level down and continue to check in with your form.
