Above the 100pts now and I’ll get you to fill out a form for the next plan so we can kick on now and hopefully reintroduce the speed work going forward. Any problems let me know. Keep doing what you are dong Dan. I put 60 mins hills on Wednesday so you can join the HR Horntye group if you wanted. As those runs are never ever flat.

Zone 2: Easy

A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Find the level which means your heart rate is in zone 2. If you go other that, reduce the level. It’s that simple.

Zone 2-3: Easy/Steady

Likely your heart rate will climb as you run up the hills, so don’t worry too much about drifting into Zone 3 for the hills, try and keep the rest in Zone 2.

Another fast start but just tried to keep to my pace. Really felt it in my calves and knee after Tuesdays magic stairs so probably would have been wiser to run on the flat. Just so I have that option on Wednesdays how long would I need to run for on a flat run for the same points as a hilly run? Cheers ๐Ÿ˜Š
80 mins flat = 60 mins hills. But we could always do 60 mins easy flat and make up the pts somewhere else. If the stairs start to cause pain then I would jump straight off and onto the elliptical to see if that is less. But good to see you. Martin is a top bloke and said he was chatting to you for a while. Good job Dan.

A good home workout for the legs. No weights needed, but if you do have some that will add to the difficulty. Recoveries around 30-60s. If time is limited then combined two exercises together. So whilst recovering from squats for example you could be doing your calf raises. This could save you as much as 15 mins.

Zone 2: Easy

A good way to boost cardio whilst reducing the risk of injury. The elliptical can tone muscles and improve endurance whilst being gentle on your joints. You might find you have to work quite hard to get your heart rate in Zone 2.

Zone 2: Easy

A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Keep that heart rate in Zone 2. You might feel like RPE is higher, as it’s a tough exercise, but a good opportunity to really improve your aerobic engine without the heavy impact of running.

Magic stairs and leg work done Friday cross trainer today. No probs to report happy days. looking forward to my run tomorrow. Must of left my watch on yesterday as recorded 21 hrs on the cross trainer ๐Ÿคฃ
Ha Ha. 21 hours is impressive. Although perhaps stepping into the zone of overtraining (just). Well done on getting all this done across the two days, this cross training has been a game changer for me and I’ve no intention of ditching it as I start to run more. Great work Dan.

Slowly adding time to your longer runs is the way forward. Keep the effort level down and continue to check in with your form.

100 mins all done felt good as well running. ๐Ÿ˜Š
Love this, love the progress, love the positivity. Makes me very happy you are now able to do this time on feet and enjoy it. Great work Dan. 100% for the week and over 100pts for a while. That’s progress.
