Still quite a big week, even though we have Paddock Wood next week as the main goal is London, and with those two upcoming halfs we are going to have to add more recovery around those races. For the 15 x 1km, stick to half marathon pace. The tendency is to go quicker, don’t. The idea being this shows us that actually HM pace isn’t that quick and should leave us feeling confident about hitting that target. Any problems though let me know. But let’s bank a strong week. You’ve got 3 days rest before PW which should be enough to smash out a quick time there.

Credit TRC for this one. Imperative to stick to half marathon pace in that first 15 minute tempo. Otherwise you’ll be too fatigued to hit target 5k pace in the shorter reps.

Good to get a group session done again – A bit happier with those paces after Sunday too!
You looked to be running so well last night. Sometimes it’s good to be the fastest in the group as well as that can build confidence and gives you an better reflection of how good you are compared to the average runner. We always compare ourselves with those quicker than us, but in fact anyone that can run sub 20 5k is a really strong runner. Great work Jamie.

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

A good run on Wednesday – I was running a couple of minutes late for parents evening so the route that would typically be 61ish mins was done in 59ish but despite this slight increase in pace still felt easy
No worries. That’s a good sign that you were a few mins quicker. Shows the fitness is on an upward curve still. Hope parents evening went ok?

This is one my favourite half marathon sessions. Hopefully goal pace will feel comfortable, until those last 3-4 reps when you’ll need to work hard. If it goes well this will give you a big confidence boost for race day, knowing the pace is achievable.

Really happy with this! – Felt comfortable throughout all the reps, averaging 4:15!
It’s a great session this as it makes you realise HM pace isn’t actually that quick. Right, I’ll be honest, now I’m torn. And I’ve just looked at the forecast for PW. It looks great. My latest advice is see how you feel on the morning. I will support you if you want to go with the 90 min pacers. We can always ease off next weeks training a little if need be. Either way, whatever goal you decide to chase, I’m happy.

Diabolical weather yesterday 😣 – but a full week completed 😁
Hitting the training just at the right time. Awesome work Jamie. A big week ticked off. Biggest of the plan so far with over 150pts banked.
