I’ve put 170 mins in for Sunday on the assumption you are pacing Chrissie? If you are going to race HHM then we need to leave the gym, but if pacing that will be fine. As you didn’t run Sunday last week you could always do track for a change? It’s also the last week of the current plan. If you’re keen to continue just drop me a message and I’ll send a link to a form to fill out. Obviously a lot of the team will be finishing this week, so the earlier you can let me know the better. A very exciting week ahead.
Recoveries: 120 Secs for the 12 mins, 60 Seconds for the 1 min reps.
A really good session to do as a group the week in the lead up to a half marathon. It gives you an opportunity to run a few miles at goal pace and also get some speed in the legs. Be sure to stick to HM pace though, any quicker and it defies the object of the session and you will be tired on race day.
Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

170 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-6)
Some serious distance here so make sure you prepare well. Take fuel and water, make sure you are wearing the right clothing for the conditions. The longer the run, the more important preparation becomes.
