We are taking a recovery week earlier in case it looked a little light (no long run). That’s because we have the Rye 10 next week as this should leave you feeling a bit fresher for that race. So just a solid week this week with 110pts up for grabs. Hopefully chance to shake off that rib injury once and for all.

Always a favourite with the team! Keep that first rep at 5k pace and then start to ramp up that speed. Enjoy!
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.
Flexibility is definitely very important to runners and yoga can help in that area!

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.
