Definitely important to ease right off this week. Coming off the back of Paddock Wood and with HHM next week. We want to be well rested for that. So I’ve moved the gym session to later in the week to allow for that extra recovery. If you feel fine Monday happy for you to switch it back as the legs will still get a rest.

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.
Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜
Running with others can reduce perceived effort so parkrun is a good option as an alternative speed session. 10 mins easy WU & CD please.
