Something a bit different this week with a progression run which you can do at parkrun. The beauty of a session like this is you spend most of the 5k overtaking people and that can really help with confidence. It’s tough to get the pacing right at first so do the best you can with that one. Another good track session lined up too. Keep up the great work Lucy.

Total of 21 mins of efforts!! A good opportunity to work on a variety of paces across varied reps. The shorter the rep, the quicker you go.

Another great session tonight. Pleased with overall pace 9.31 mm. Felt slighlty tired in place but nothing too bad. Guess thats to be expected with longer reps and quicker than 5k pace. Ready for the week ahead!
Yeah as the weeks tick over the reps will get longer. And the key to good 5ks is holding pace and form when everything is starting to shut down. But you’re definitely making big improvements and this was another strong session, so really well done Lucy.

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.

Great run this morning. Happy with the overall pace. Got a segment PR for in the park at just over 10 min mile pace. Little issue with my back spasm at the start but was ok during the run. Not sure about tomms run because of that.
Excellent work Lucy. As mentioned in the message I would say and wait to see how you feel tomorrow. From experience running can sometimes help as our posture is better when we run that other parts of the day (sitting and desk working). The stretches I sent over will hopefully help.

parkrun is the best!!! Every Saturday at 9am. A great opportunity to push our effort levels and run alongside other people. Make sure you get there nice and early for your WU & Strides. I normally aim for 8:15 to give myself plenty of time.

Hope the back feels better and don’t worry we’ll make up for lost points later in the plan.
