Monday’s cancellation means you can now push hard at Tuesday efforts and even go full tilt on one of the parkruns. See how you feel Xmas morning and decided then. But that’s better than doing lots of steady runs. Merry Christmas to you and your family πŸŽ„

Bit of a mixed week, unsure really.
Fell good just had nothing in the legs Sunday so canned it at 80 minutes.

I might be wrong, but I like the data side of things and when we look back, it may have been the week before (200+ points) which just caught up with you. I appreciate it’s not as easy for you with the kids to be as consistent as you might like, but perhaps that was the reason here. Still 90+ % of the training done this week so I don’t think we need to worry. Well done Adam.

As discussed rest day.
I’m glad that worked out well. As a rest day was ideal given the recent training.

40pts | Dover Intervals

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.

AM 5mi easy treadmill run, average pace 7:53, HR 123. PM track session 12x 400m on/off, 3:25mi + wu/cd. Total distance 9.80mi.
That’s exactly 40pts if my maths are right so that’s a bonus. I guess the 5 miles early was because you knew you wouldn’t be running too and from track? In which case good planning and also great pace on those 400s, that’s a tough session that one. Awesome work Adam.

S&C as per plan into a cheeky treadmill 10k πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ Legs felt good after yesterday track session and tomorrows PR is with family so will be super easy which is a good thing as it’s forecast to be v windy!
I did say that 10k and thought “what’s Adam up to today?” πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜‚ But now you told me parkrun is going to be easy it actually makes sense and I’m pleased you did it. Another good session though and shows you are running well. Merry Xmas.

Progressive PR 6:45>5:45- 20:18. Very difficult in that cross wind but stayed strong, picked off a few ppl the last 800m. + 2.65m wu.
A really good time Adam. That was brisk. In Hastings they had to run into the headwind for 2.5km but then at least they had it behind them on the way back. A great way to start Xmas Day.

Not been sleeping great recently so when I didn’t wake up in time for PR I was amazed so made the most of it!
Sometimes the sleep is better than the few pts to be honest. So you did the right thing to rest up.

42pts | 140 Mins Run

42 POINTS

140 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-6)

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.

TR 30%
Only 80- 10.20mi absolutely nothing in the legs even at that pace, average HR 145 πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
The lack of sleep perhaps? Best not to overthink it right now. It might go back to the previous week where you smashed out 200+ pts, it can take a while before the effects of that come through. I just hope you feel better this week. As mentioned, sometimes best not to overanalyse and just put it down as one of those runs.
