50 Mins Run
Zone 2: Easy
It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.
Decent week. I always enjoy that Friday session. Feels a good pace but at a comfortable effort. Decent mileage on Sunday too. All about laying down those foundations for the big marathon sessions which are coming soon. Any problems let me know, but keep up the great work Adam.

With your extended warm and cool down this currently earns 40 training pts. If anything does change (shorter WU, less intense session), let me know and I can tweak one of the other runs later in the week.

If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.
A good session to mix up paces. WU & CD very important to slowly build the pace.
Keep the long runs at a low effort level. Obviously the longer the time wears on the harder the run will become. Make sure you hydrate and take fuel with you.
