A strong week, do what you can if work is still very busy. Tuesday is a great chance to see what 5k pace you have in the legs. I always find that’s a really good representation of how quick I can run my parkrun in. Any issues let me know.

Running with others can reduce perceived effort so parkrun is a good option as an alternative speed session. 10 mins easy WU & CD please.
90 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.
