5 POINTS
Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
Really good week with plenty of easy miles. If the conditions are great Saturday and you wanted to do a fast parkrun then we can reduce the Sunday long run. But these sort of weeks are all about showing up, earning those points and making that progress. Pts = Progress! Keep up the great work Karl.
Another good week. Feeling good
Great week. Even some bonus points for going that little bit quicker at parkrun. Pleased you’re feeling good and hopefully that will be on display Sunday in the winter 5k. Keep up the great work Karl.

“Easy means Easy! Not 5k pace, not 10k pace, not even marathon pace. Easy pace!! 😉”
Save those legs for the bigger sessions and enjoy running comfortably among the pack.
Thank you.
