Let’s see how the ankle is. Obviously this schedule is done with the assumption you’ll be ok. If not we will need to make tweaks. Also listen to the body post Bewl and if you need extra rest, take it. We don’t want to be smashing out an efforts session if the muscles are still super tight from Sunday. Only you will know that, but if any doubt I would rather you rest, plenty more effort sessions we can do. Keep at it Jo.

120 Seconds for the 5 Mins Reps.
90 Seconds for the 2 Min Reps.

A good session to start off with your 5k pace and then pick up the speed as we move into the shorter reps. See if you can finish with your fastest lap in that final rep!!

That was all good. Might say apart from the final 2 mins, I enjoyed it
Excellent work Jo. Another strong session in the bank. Consistency is the name of the game to keep making gains. But really pleased with this.

If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

Very gentle 60 minutes though it was hot
Perfect run after Tuesdays efforts!

Rather than just head out and do 60 mins easy, this goes through the gears a little and will hopefully help you improve running economy as the speed picks up a little. It’s still a light session but makes the easy runs more interesting. Best done on the flat to hit consistent paces.

So I rescheduled the gym visit to Saturday and added a 60 minutes easy/ medium pace run to offset spin. Did I get the points right?. Really enjoyed the Oliver Curd, I think I should have committed to racing it before Crowhurst station, it would have been good to see how much quicker I could have completed it.
I think you’ve earned some bonus pts on top of your target which is great. There are some tricky sections early in that route so I can understand why you’d wait before kicking on with the pace. But it’s nice to get a course PB and get rewards for your recent hard work. Great stuff Jo.

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.

Long runs are key. Fuel and hydrate well & join a group if you can.

OMG awful nights sleep so I couldn’t get out of bed this morning but got out eventually. Very hot As you know, but got it done with appropriate fueling on the way
Sometimes it’s just about being a mental gladiator. No excuses, get it done. And feels like this was one of those days. So be proud of yourself for getting out there and banking those crucial miles. Awesome work Jo and a huge week in the bank. It’s pushed your average training pts up by 2 (to 95). The higher than number, the fitter you’ll be.
