• March 9th - 15th

All about Sunday really and why we keep it light before that. Although a good session Tuesday to get some speed in the legs (switch with group intervals if that is an option). Sunday is all about time on feet so don’t worry about pace. You got this and it’s a big step in your Paris preparation. Keep up the great work Sarah!!

Down as a rest day but had a class tonight (as I’ve been doing powerlifting on a Tuesday) Deadlifts tonight, working on technique with some dumbbell RDLS, single leg glute bridges and split squats.
Well done Sarah, certain powerlifting moves like squats and deadlifts are great. It’s believed heavy weights and low reps is the best way to improve our strength as runners so this is a good approach

A decent speed session Work hard and take this opportunity to improve your fitness. Go get ’em.

Went to run club, probably an easier session that the one on the plan as it was lamppost pyramids, alternating speed and recovery for 1 lamppost then 2 then 3 then 4 (4 lampposts at speed and 4 recovery) repeating over about 800m distances. Then some Indian file sprint work. Felt really good tonight and got some good pace on my efforts, my overall pace was 10:42min/mile for the session and that includes the recoveries.
Great work Sarah. As I’ve said many times before I’m always keen for my runners to join in with group sessions as it will definitely bring out the best in us. I would say if you feel it was lighter than what was planned, just look to add on some bonus minutes later in the week to catch up those lost points. But it’s a good way of thinking as it’s more likely you’ll progress with that mindset.

Did a class at the gym, was quite a mixture of things, slam balls, skierg, sled pull/push etc I know they aren’t all directly good for runners but I am really enjoying my gym classes at the moment.
I think finding what you enjoy is important but this will definitely have some benefits. Sounds challenging and good fun, really well done Sarah

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate. Don’t forget your strides. Very important. 30-60 seconds recovery between strides.

50 mins easy run, I’m starting to enjoy my friday morning run before logging onto work
If you can get into a weekly routine it can make a huge difference. Easier now the mornings are lighter, but the fact you are enjoying it too is huge. Well done Sarah. Did you do the strides as well? I’ve credited the points but if not try and squeeze them in later in the week if possiblw
