Still working on the parkrun times for now. The most important thing is hit the right training level, so no worries if you do switch the sessions up slightly, especially if running with the club for intervals. Let’s make this another strong week. Consistency is key. Pts = Progress.
Rubbish week, had a lot going on with cat care/vet visits. We have 2 kittens who were in the vets for procedures on Wednesday, one ended up being a lot more complicated so the back end of the week was taken up with cat care. Normal service should resume this week though as he is recovering quite nicely now.
Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.

Always a favourite with the team! Keep that first rep at 5k pace and then start to ramp up that speed. Enjoy!
The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

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.
