Hopefully achievable. Sessions everyday during the week but only 30-60 mins (max). Then the big one Sunday. Any problems let me know. If you wanted me to try and arrange a lift over to Hastings for the efforts just shout.
A much more successful week, with some good sessions in there – still missed one S&C session though, so not quite the full week!
I think when we have these weeks when availability is limited, it’s important, as you have done, not just to write it off and make excuses but get as much done in the time we have. 80%+ of training is still a decent week and building a good foundation for those tough marathon sessions later in the plan. Well done Jamie.

10 Mins WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2)
2 mins @ 3k Pace (RPE: 8)
90 Seconds Recovery
x 10
10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Another simple but effective session. You want to be going quicker than your current 5k pace if you are going to make improvements. Your effort level (RPE) should be high for the last 30 seconds of each rep. Dig deep to make those gains 💪
40 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
8 x 100 metre Strides (RPE: 8)
60 Second Recoveries
Keep the 40 mins easy and don’t forget those strides. Without them you won’t improve and will fall short of your weekly targets.

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.
“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”

A really good session to offer variety into your long runs and practice running at marathon pace.
