Sometimes the week on the dashboard can look quite overwhelming, but just focus on one day at a time, one mile at a time, one exercise at a time and often if feels much more manageable than you anticipated. Keep up the great work though Andy. We are building that endurance again with more miles on the plan again. Any problems just ask.

Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.

Tough circuit class but enjoyed it
Sometimes it’s the tough ones that are the most enjoyable. Well done Andy.

45 Mins & Strides

45 Mins @ Easy Pace

RPE: 3

8 x 100 metre Strides

RPE: 8

The only real mistake you can make here is going too fast. Try and pick a flat route as well. Finish off with the strides. Total time needed is 60 mins.

Quite enjoyed this. Took about 30mins to get my legs going but felt fairly comfortable after that. Heart rate looked a little high for easy run, but I was a little quick. Strides tough at the end, but pretty close to targets I think
Well done Andy, glad you enjoyed it. Yeah it’s not a bad idea to keep an eye on the HR and ensure we are not creeping up towards 160. I appreciate everyones HR stats are different hence why I do use RPE a lot. But sounds like it went well and the easiest way to fix that is drop the pace a little. Thank you for doing strides as well.

10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

A good opportunity to practice goal pace for an steady run. The more comfortable you get at goal pace the easier it will feel on race day.

Was a bit nervous going into this one, as to whether I could keep the pace. Also had a very poor sleep night before Joined one of the faster and longer groups at run club and pushed myself. Really pleased I did it and with my pace, but was quite hard work. Not quite sure I could hold this for a full HM yet, but still progress 😊
Excellent work Andy. The times I hear people make that comment about the pace. I had the same experience myself doing 21k at marathon pace during my block and thinking “no way I can do that all over again”. To which I always reply, you don’t have to, not right now. On race day you’ll be better rested, better fuelled, have runners around you, the crowd support, more motivation. So many extra benefits. So always trust the plan and focus on that given day and session and you’ll be amazed at what you can pull out of the bag in a race. Hope you manage to catch up on your sleep

160 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

This is the sort of distance where fuelling is now a priority. You’ll also start to get tired legs, but unless there is any specific pain, keep going, you’ll be amazed how far you can run on tired legs.

We made a plan to do the long run on Saturday, incorporating parkrun and it worked really well. Very pleased with how this went, felt pretty strong and could of kept going, now feeling great afterwards. I think we’ll use this strategy for long runs in future, if there isn’t a Sunday race to work the long run around.
Big fan of this approach and I said to Sarah I used if for my own marathon training and even ran 16 miles to another parkrun before finishing my long run with the 5k at goal pace. It just gives you that something to work towards, and obviously there will be lots of runners around too. Plus it’s nice to have Sunday off and start the new week fresher. Great work Andy.

Did a pilates at home. Nice stretch out after being sore from Saturday
Good timing after the Sunday run. Not surprised you were a little sore. Well done Andy
