All about the big HM session this week, I know HHM has hills but London Landmarks is your big goal and this is the last long HM session we do. So I’d be inclined, if the weather is good to pick a flattish route. If you can run with Michelle then even better. The Cuckoo Trail is a brilliant place to run if you don’t mind the extra travel time. Any problems let me know.

If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.
It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.

A big half marathon session. Important to find that goal pace in training and this session replicates the race well with the RPE increasing with each interval.
