Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
All being well this is a really exciting week with 3 midweek sessions with the group and then the race on Sunday. But obviously with the knee playing silly buggers, the best advice is just take one day at a time, take the extra recovery and rest if need be. I really hope you feel back to 100% soon.

Always a favourite with the team! Keep that first rep at 5k pace and then start to ramp up that speed. Enjoy!
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.
| Squats | 45s x 2 |
| Calf Raises | 30s x 2 |
| Split Squat | 60s x 2 |
| Wall Sits | 60s x 2 |
| Single Leg Deadlift | 60s x 2 |
| Crab Walks | 30s x 2 |
15 minutes. Bish. Bash. Bosh. Add some weights once ready to progress with some of the exercises.
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.
