Crazy that your taper week is anyone elses biggest week of their plan 😂 You’re a machine. I still wanted to get a bit of speed in the legs, it’s far enough out from race day to not be an issue. Listen to the body as well, if you need extra rest, take it, you’ll know better than me in this scenario. We want you fresh for race day.

A good session to mix up paces. WU & CD very important to slowly build the pace.
Likely your heart rate will climb as you run up the hills, so don’t worry too much about drifting into Zone 3 for the hills, try and keep the rest in Zone 2.
Crammed a bit more into 1 session here but now you’ve got a lot of good stuff in there. Hopefully it’s ok?
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Keep that heart rate in Zone 2. You might feel like RPE is higher, as it’s a tough exercise, but a good opportunity to really improve your aerobic engine without the heavy impact of running.
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
