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!

Found session tough so really please with my pace avg over session 9.32 min/ mile. Was trying to make sure my arms were moving and head was up. I do enjoy these session.
They are tough but you do great. Form looked good tonight and the fact you continue to work on will only help. I was working really hard in my 10k race Sunday but the more I focused on my running form, the more it distracted me and it made a huge difference. I’m glad you enjoy them too. It’s a lovely group to run with. Well done Sue

60 Mins Run

Zone 2: Easy

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

60 min run done pre W2R Was slow but was at the back chatting with a runner who having a very tough time in her life at the moment. Then did w2r. Ran and lead the advanced group . 1 min running 1 min walking for 10 min.Was like an efforts session keeping up with the front runners. When running was in the lower 10 min / mile or less pace.
Well done Sue, helping so many people tonight by the sounds of it. From your point of view having to put in that much effort the day after a session probably isn’t ideal but hopefully as the weeks go on, you’ll know which is the best W2R group for you to work with. Some extra pts banked today for that higher effort.

“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”

Gym done today instead as yesterday. Good session. Mainly kept at same weights as last week . I going to give my injury time to heal.Did up farmer walk to 8 kg. Hardly any niggles this time mainly towards the end of the session. Much more comfortable this week. Will up the weights when I can do session with no niggles.
Very sensible to use less weights until you are happy the injury has gone, but it’s pleasing to know you are getting less discomfort now. Well done Sue.

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.

Nice relax run. First half with Jo Edwards before we joined Walk , talk ,run to complete.
Well done Sue, nice to be able to do both. Great job on getting the person on the front cover of Runners World this month to do a talk in Hastings. Would have been even more impressive had it been last months cover, given it was Harry Styles ๐Ÿ˜‚
