Nearly 100pts on the table this week. That’s a decent milestone to be hitting. For the 1 minute reps keep it steady and just under 5k pace, we don’t need to be going all in for those. Especially with speed work just being reintroduced to the plan. Any problems let me know. Let’s smash this week πŸ’ͺ

The only real mistake you can make here is going too fast. Try and pick a flat route as well. Hills will push that RPE too high.

I was exhausted today. Made it really really hard. But need to get those points!!
The pts are a great motivator. Sometimes running when tired can help and it’s builds are mental resilience that we can complete tasks even when we are tired. So really well done Lucy

Zone 2

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.

10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

Really simple session and a chance to practice running at your target 10k goal pace for short periods of time.

Managed half of the intervals. I was finding the heat was really getting to me this morning. It was very hard to push through. Any tips on how to manage training with heat waves like this?
It has been very hot this weekend. I think the key is changing the target. So rather than focus on pace. Go for RPE or Heart Rate. I will be adding heart rate zones to the dashboard, hopefully later today. If you have info on your max heart rate and send that too me, I can add that. So if conditions are tough you’d just ignore the pace and focus on either effort level or heart rate and that will make a difference. You’d naturally end up running a slower pace but still get the same benefit from the session.

Keep it easy but also focus on good form. If you can increase your cadence without raising your heart rate, then give it a go.

It was just still too hot too late so missed this one. Annoyed as I had a good streak going!
That is a shame but yes this week was particularly hot. Let’s get back on that streak as quickly as possible if we can.
