Tweaked it slightly. A shame Michelle can’t do Thursday this week but another opportunity to practice some 10k pace ahead of Chichester. I’ve put the Sunday long run in there too as I thought you might want to join the gang. Any issues let me know. Keep up the great work Lou.

Good but tough week.
Slight tightness in glute.
Looking forward to Sunday 10k.

I’m thinking of having Friday and Saturday as rest days prior to Sunday?

Well done Lou, another strong week hitting those targets. Yes if you feel it will help for Sunday. Any chance of squeezing the other 40 mins in Tuesday? Sorry I know that’s a work day, so rest up if need be. Being fresh for Sunday is the most important thing.

Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

Breaking down your 10k goal pace into mile reps should make it more manageable and give you practicing running at that speed and RPE.

Felt super tough today (kid not sleeping on top of 3 mental work days is not good for morale!!!) so much so I almost gave up. Gave myself a good talking too and cracked on. Think I chose the wrong route as the first 3 miles are all up hill. Strava has not broken down the session so have a look at Garmin app for stats. Slower than it should have been to start and I didn’t complete the whole CD as I was knackered.
Some days are just hard and it can be quite miserable in truth. And we are left questioning why do I this. We do it for the days it doesn’t feel like this and we only get those days by working hard when it feels tough. You wait til Chichester. If preparation goes well, having all those people around you, the flat(ish) route, the good surface to run on, you’ll have to fight hard to slow yourself down and not go off too fast. So I wouldn’t worry about that right now. Looking at Garmin Connect the pace looks decent to me given the circumstances. And mentally you’ll be tougher and more resilient having completing a session like this. So well done Lou!! Once Chichester is ticked off the sessions will be easier than this as well.

Saturday long run – with a Parkrun in between. Felt good. No niggles. Dug deep at the end going back up battle road 👊🏼
Absolute quality. Love the running friendship you and Michelle have. Well done Lou
