So I’ve listened to everything you’ve said and upped the training here. 150pts means you are working harder than any other female on the team 💪 I also feels it’s just about ok, and less points than you’ve accumulated in recent weeks, so it should be fine, just keep those easy runs easy. And Sunday just settle into marathon pace. Speaking of which, what sort of time are you aiming for at London this year (3:45, 3:50 or just a PB?), that will determine the pace of Sundays run. Any problems let me know. Keep up the great work Lindsey.
Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.
Recoveries:
1km Reps – 2 Mins
400 Metre Reps – 90s
200 Metre Reps – 60s
New session. A good chance to work on a variety of paces and pick up the speed as the session goes on. Try and hit those targets on the dashboard if you can. Bear in mind this could take up to 50 mins so just get your timings right so you don’t run out of time if doing this on the track.
Trust your PT.
Always explain to your PT what else you are doing this week so they can adjust the session accordingly.

“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”

“Easy means Easy! Not 5k pace, not 10k pace, not even marathon pace. Easy pace!! 😉”
Save those legs for the bigger sessions and enjoy running comfortably among the pack.
Thank you.
