Not essential but I wonder if combining the 2nd gym session with the Horntye run will help as gives you an extra rest day ahead of Sunday? I think this week we want to just be consistent, so keep the 1 min reps solid rather than pushing 9-10/10. 8/10 is a good effort and 3k pace is a decent target. Similar for Wednesday really. The 60 mins should be pretty easy for the most part, other than any hills, but hopefully the leaders will be kind with Sunday in mind. You’re running well, I’ll put out a post about pacing, and DM if you are unsure, I think getting that early pace right is the key.

Don’t go off too fast as 20 reps is a lot. RPE towards the end of each rep should be a 9 and pace will be towards the lower end or just under your 3k targets. Consistency is the key.

Enjoyed this session
It’s always a good one that. You looked to be running really well and nice to have some quicker runners to chase. Great work Karl.

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.

Big day. I skipped my strides to get the meeting and then it started 15 mins late so was pissed. I was keen to find out if you got another offer for that woodwork domain? Any luck?

Zone 2: Easy

5 miles is a really tough distance to get right. Rest assured, this is tough. The first mile is so important, don’t go off too quick and you’ll set yourself up for a strong race. Pace should be right at the top of your Zone 5, 10k target. Towards the end you’ll be working in Zone 6 though from an RPE and heart rate perspective.

Struggled to maintain pace after the turnaround. In the end pleased to get under 40 mins.
I have an idea which I think can help, but will sit on it for now and save it for when I think best to use. Obviously what we are seeing in training isn’t quite translating to races, but once we get that right I think you’ll see big gains. So keep working hard and all of a sudden it will come together nicely. Trust me. A really strong week though, so loads of positives to take. Well done Karl.
