No S&C this week as a bonus and to leave you fresher for HHM. Such an exciting week and whilst nerves are still normal, just remind yourself that you are in the best shape ever coming into this event. So you should be confident. I’ve got a few of the team, Klare and Lou who are looking to go for 2:10. I don’t think you’re that far away from that now, quicker if it were flat, so perhaps running with them might be an option.

A really good session to do as a group the week in the lead up to a half marathon. It gives you an opportunity to run a few miles at goal pace and also get some speed in the legs. Be sure to stick to HM pace though, any quicker and it defies the object of the session and you will be tired on race day.

Great work Maria. The perfect session ahead of the weekend.

The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

Stick to your goal pace early on and it should feel easy. Dig deep in those final 5km to achieve your goal. The biggest mistake you can make is getting swept along in the early stages and going off too fast.

Got to be honest I didn’t enjoy that! I stopped a few times and twisted my ankle but a 9 min pb somehow lol thankyou for your support and encouragement
Firstly, congratulations on your new PB. Sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy it and also twisted the ankle. Hope that is ok? Looking at your splits I think you just went off a bit too quickly. And when that happens and you start to struggle it’s really hard to find your rhythm. It’s something I’ve done many times myself, and know how horrible it can feel. HHM in particular is a really hard race to pace, but the fact I passed you on Queensway highlights that fact. I don’t say this is a negative, but just to say in future, have a better pacing strategy (I’m always hear to discuss that with you) and I think you’ll find the races much more enjoyable. I think had you paced it right, the time would have still been the same, but your overall experience would have been much more enjoyable. But well done Maria. Another fantastic run.
