A stretching routine you can do daily to help with your flexibility. 30 seconds for each stretch is plenty.
At first glance you might think ๐คฏ but individually the sessions are not that challenging, so it should be manageable. I’ve got you down for the Spring 5K? 200s again you ask? Monday myself and a few others are likely to be doing a bank holiday session and because it’s the race Wednesday we want a slightly different stimulus, hence the 200 metre reps. If you want to do something close to home we can change that for anything really, even an easy run if you want to save the legs for Wednesday. Let me know.

Pace is the best thing to focus on here. You should be at the lower end or even under your 3k target here. A great chance to get some speed in the legs.

A really good home workout for the core and legs. If new to this, don’t worry about hitting the seconds or reps. Do what you can and slowly build up to the targets.
For example you might find you can only hold a plank for 20 seconds at first, which is fine. Don’t push too hard that you get injured. You’ll soon get strong and be able to add more seconds.

I’m a big fan of consistent splits. With any race avoiding getting swept away with the crowds is key, so focus on that early pace and hold back, settle into a rhythm. Km 4 is often the hardest, so zone in on 4 and dig deep. You got this!

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.
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.
