40 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training. Have fun!
Recovery week and hopefully just what was needed after a few aches and pains in recent times. There is the option to replace the Sunday run with a Friday speed session if you prefer a weekend lie in. As long as we reduce the pts this week, that’s the most important thing. Keep smashing it Lou.
Well I got it all done. Was worried I wouldn’t with the legs feeling how they were. Pleased with how training is going, and would really like to maintain the high level of training.
You’re doing great. So consistent and a pleasure to work with. As long as we can keep those niggles at bay I’m exciting to see what you are capable of producing next year. But I think we are doing a great job right now of laying down some excellent foundations and hopefully building the self confidence for when we do tackle some races in the new year. Keep up the excellent work Lou

A really good way to get your S&C in. A full body workout with barbells will really aid your running and reduce the risk of injury.

8 x 100 metre Strides (RPE: 8)
60 Second Recoveries
Keep the 40 mins easy and don’t forget those strides. Without them you won’t improve and will fall short of your weekly targets.

30 Mins Elliptical (RPE: 6-7)
A good way to boost cardio whilst reducing the risk of injury. The elliptical can tone muscles and improve endurance whilst being gentle on your joints.

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.
