Some of us might be doing a little effort session Bank Holiday Monday evening if you are free? I will post details on the group (or may already have done so). There’s also a club race on the Wednesday (5k) so that’s an option too. Any issues with the schedule, you’ve got a lighter week coming up to look forward to.

Zone 2: Easy

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 💪

Completed this on Wednesday instead due to late finish at work on Monday. Think I have the start of a cold or something coming. Body felt quite weak throughout that, but the head wanted me to complete it. Did run quicker than 3k pace which probably didn’t help and heart rate was sitting quite high. Even resting heart rate was higher today which could indicate start of something. So will see how rest of week goes 😀
Sorry to hear that. Definitely something going round. I’ve been a little off most of the week but hoping it just passes. Love the determination though and well done for hitting your splits.

45 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace

RPE: 3

It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 45 minute swim replaces an easy 45 minute run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.

Not feeling 100% but got the swim done 😀 55 min sesh
Loads of the team have these niggly colds, including us. Been lingering a while now which is annoying 🙄 Well done on the swim Sally, let’s hope we all feel better soon.

Zone 2: Easy

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.

Session completed today Friday as really had to jiggle things about last minute this week. Still feeling bit poorly but needed to get out today and run. Got out and HR monitor strap broke so had to just run on feel in the end. Actually felt good and got quicker through the run. Thoroughly enjoyed it and glad I dragged myself out, could have kept running 😀 Lovely stretches after 😀
I love how your feedback is always quite consistent, finishing with how much better you felt post run compared to when you started. Just goes to show the difference it can make. Sorry to hear about your heart rate strap. I need to invest in one now to ensure my new approach is giving me accurate data. Awesome work Sally. Thanks for doing the stretches too

Completed this Saturday. What a wally I am had all my exercises down in my diary that I follow etc otherwise I am awful if I keep looking at my phone as I then deviate and don’t get on with stuff. But in my head I was spinning after this session so I done my normal 30min spin. What an idiot!! Oh well never mind 😀 Although today was a mind over matter as this sniffle cold thing is leaving me bit tired 🤣🤣
Bonus pts. That’s cool. Better than missing something off right? What is it with this cold as well? I’ve had it over a week now as well as doesn’t seem to be shifting. Great work though Sally.

Slowly adding time to your longer runs is the way forward. Keep the effort level down and continue to check in with your form.

Full of snot but wasn’t going to miss this run to end the week and miss out on some sunshine. So run complete and look forward to an easier week and hopefully shift whatever this is 😀
Love how you get on with it, no excuses. If you could bottle that determination and sell it, you’d be a wealthy lady.
