Recoveries: 90 seconds all reps
Credit TRC for this one. Imperative to stick to half marathon pace in that first 15 minute tempo. Otherwise you’ll be too fatigued to hit target 5k pace in the shorter reps.
“Yippee-ki-yay, motherf*****r” Recovery week. Let’s go. Enjoy. Keep up the great work Chrissie. Apologies for my potty mouth. I just carried away sometimes.
