Another strong week, last one before the taper, but we are smart and take a few days just to rest up after Lydd. We’ve got some marathon tempo work in there, a quick parkrun, but the biggest test of all, a long run which I’m going to see if you can average 5:45 per km or less. That’s this weeks big challenge 😜 Any issues let me know. Keep up the great work Kevin.

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.
All about time on feet. Don’t focus on pace. Instead keep that effort level down and concentrate on good running economy. Fuelling and hydration key too.
