90 Mins Run
Zone 2: Easy
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
No real long run this week so it looks pretty rammed to hit those target pts which are lighter than the average. Quite a few nice easy runs in there where you can just chill and tick off the miles. Any issues with the S&C let me know, definitely lots of potential to mix that up if there are any exercises you don’t like.

Find a hilly route and push the pace a little. The uphills will naturally make the RPE increase. Try to attack the downhills as well, then ease off a touch on the flat. This is a session though so effort should be quite high during the 40 mins on.
Crammed a bit more into 1 session here but now you’ve got a lot of good stuff in there. Hopefully it’s ok?
30 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
8 x 100 metre Strides (RPE: 8)
60 Second Recoveries
Sometimes a 30 minute shake out can help recovery or just give you some much needed head space. Keep it easy. Strides are crucial here.
Likely your heart rate will climb as you run up the hills, so don’t worry too much about drifting into Zone 3 for the hills, try and keep the rest in Zone 2.
