Two great sessions this week. Very jealous as someone that has a spring marathon and isn’t running yet. On Tuesday evening we are doing an almost identical session (8 x 2 mins & 8 x 1min). Again I’m also open to the idea of doing AC Track, if Dave is doing that again. I think that would be great for you to run with quicker runners and the sessions are generally well suited for marathon training in that they always seem to do 30 mins, so it’s very endurance based. So some good options there. Any problems let me know. Keep up the great work Jamie.

Speed is definitely something that seems to have taken a hit recently – that was tough! Glad to have got it done in full though!
We can’t always be at our best in all aspects of our running. So whilst we focus on our endurance and marathon pace, the speed will inevitably drop a little bit, but we can keep on top of it with sessions like this. Really well done for smashing it out.

Enjoyed that – nice comfortable 50 mins late evening run!
There are some benefits to running late in that it’s quieter out there. Glad you enjoyed it and well done Jamie.

That was a tough session! Bizarrely, enjoyed it though! The weather was pretty good – to start with at least, although the easterly wind got stronger throughout, as was pretty significant towards the end. As mentioned on Strava, I decided to finish the last set off by continuing west to the lower prom to keep the wind behind me, but unexpectedly found myself in deep shingle and my legs just gave up after sagging into it! Kept a decent pace through most of the session, but those last few km were very tough!
That was a bit unlucky with the shingle. No way of knowing that and never worry if the pace drops as the result of the wind. 10-15 seconds per km into a steady wind is about right. That will mean the RPE will be correct. But a big session given the recent layoff so feel like we are getting back on track now. Well done Jamie.
