With the Worthing half now in the plan it’s a much lighter week in the build up. It’s not really a goal race as such but it’s still one you can run a good time. So if you wanted to chat pacing strategies then let me know. I think you are running well and it’s an opportunity to beat your time from Hastings if you wanted, given the flatter nature of the route. Any issues let me know. Keep up the great work Maria.

*reps/seconds on both sides

If some of the sets/reps are too demanding at first, just do what you can, you can always build up to 60s slowly. Wall sits and planks in particular can be tough, so just go to the point you feel you need to stop and repeat that time, even if it’s only 20s.

All completed.Yes please to any advice for Sundays run
Great start to the week Maria. If it were me. Sunday I would stick close to the 2:10 pacer for the first 10 miles. That is going to feel comfortable for you. Then when you get to 10 miles then pick up the pace and run a strong final 3 miles (5k). You’ll be overtaking lots of people, feeling strong and end up with a new PB. That’s a great way to run a half.

The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

Great work Maria

Stick to your goal pace early on and it should feel easy. Dig deep in those final 5km to achieve your goal. The biggest mistake you can make is getting swept along in the early stages and going off too fast.

Really happy with this run.I did like you said sit behind the 2.10 pacers.For a short time I was just in front of them but near the end I had nothing left to go past them and the heat got to me.But really happy for a new pb chip time 1.10 34
Yeah pacers are great and often underused in my opinion (although we were fighting to follow the 45 mins in the 10k it seemed). Congrats on a new half marathon PB. It all worked out well in the end. Great running Maria.
