NYD parkrun an option? If not Tuesday evening efforts could be a possibility. But it’s a tough hill session and I was worried it was too soon after the 5 miler. this is the last week of this plan but I will crack on with the new one which will take us up to the Run to the Sea. Exciting times ahead. Happy New Year Michelle and congrats on such a strong 2025.
A solid week this week, I definitely felt less tired with the 3 runs compared to the 4 🙈 which is understandable I suppose, or maybe in was the mix of what I had this week I’m not sure.
Felling good with no niggles and happy to have ticked each session off. Roll on next week and new plan 😊
Excellent work Michelle. That’s all you can do, trust the plan, leave that down to me. It’s worked brilliantly so far and we continue to progress into 2026! Exciting time ahead.

Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜
Running with others can reduce perceived effort so parkrun is a good option as an alternative speed session. 10 mins easy WU & CD please.
So slightly more challenging and time consuming. To save time you can superset some exercises. What does that mean? Well rather than having 60 seconds recovery after your Kettlebell Swings, use that 60 seconds to do the Farmers Walk. And then go back to the Kettlebell Swings again. So you’d alternative 2 exercises and once, then have a short break before doing the same again. It saves as much as 15 mins that you’d otherwise just be standing around. Any issues let me know.

140 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-6)
Keep the long runs at a low effort level. Obviously the longer the time wears on the harder the run will become. Make sure you hydrate and take fuel with you.
