4 runs, but no need to be running for too long just yet, hopefully the lighter evenings will help too. Speaking of which if you ever want to come along to a Tuesday session with the gang, it would be great to have you. Any problems let me know but keep up the great work Maria. Someone mentioned your name the other day to me and said how well you are doing 🧡

If some of the sets/reps are too demanding at first, just do what you can, you can always build up to 60s slowly. Wall sits and planks in particular can be tough, so just go to the point you feel you need to stop and repeat that time, even if it’s only 20s.
10 Mins WU @ Easy Pace (RPE: 2)
2 mins @ 3k Pace (RPE: 8)
90 Seconds Recovery
x 10
10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
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 💪

Just a little leg turnover of the legs and a chance to get some miles in at half marathon pace.
Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜
90 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
