Good news. After this weeks effort session they will start to get a bit easier again and we will focus a bit more on endurance than speed. Sunday will also be the longest run of the plan, but keep up the great work. Really pleased with your progress to this point. We have marathon sessions in 4 of the next 5 weeks, so taking a break and just going easy pace this weekend.

Keep going until you have completed all the sets of both exercises and then take a 60 seconds rest before moving onto the next 2 exercises and repeat the process.

Sweaty but less shaky this time 💪

That was hard but I did it! I can’t imagine doing this on my own. Felt good after that 💪

60 Second Recoveries

Try and keep it easy. It all depends on your current level. If slowly adding time to your long run the last 10-20 mins might be tough. Focus on good form. Do those strides and account 15 mins at the end to get them done.

I had 4 layers of clothes on and it was too much for today! Felt like a spring day. 80 minutes sweaty run was a bit hard in the different way 😅 strides were good 👍
“Be bold and start cold” is a good running quote. Well done for getting it done though and thanks for doing the strides. Lucy Pollard is the same pace as you and has the same marathon sessions coming up. She tends to do her long runs on Friday. Would you be interested in me trying to team you up so you can do those tough training runs together? And would you have availability to do them on Fridays?

160 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

This is the sort of distance where fuelling is now a priority. You’ll also start to get tired legs, but unless there is any specific pain, keep going, you’ll be amazed how far you can run on tired legs.

Yes! I did it. It’s annoying that I couldn’t go farther in Cooden as the road turns into A road so no pavement then I had to change the route. I should’ve checked before. Anyway I ran on my own but it was enjoyable and a bit busy taking the gels and chews 😁 little funny ankle and side of knee but it’s all fine. I’ll have acupuncture tomorrow.
Fantastic. Another big run. These are the type of runs that are really building your endurance. Some discomfort is to be expected and then it’s important we rest to allow the legs to get stronger. Awesome work Manami and sounds like the fuelling went well too.
