Two lovely easy runs. A anaerobic session (still important to get the pace right and not go too fast) and a threshold tempo run. Combined with the easy aerobic sessions and S&CV and we have a perfect recipe this week. Running really is simple and that’s the beauty of it in my opinion. A real opportunity this week to make some decent gains. Any problems let me know. You got this Victoria.

Don’t go off too fast as 20 reps is a lot. You should feel like you’re working at a very high effort level towards the last 15 seconds of each rep. Go get ’em!
Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

A really good session if working towards a 10k or even a half marathon to work on speed endurance. This will be tough, but dig deep and focus on staying relaxed, running with good form and hitting those pace targets. You got this.
