I’m not quite sure why I’ve given you 90 mins Tuesday πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ Perhaps you mentioned you couldn’t make efforts. Either way we can switch it up if need be. I’ve moved the bimble too because of the race Friday. Saturday pacing at parkrun? I think you should be fine post race, but if you do feel tired let me know. I also don’t have the handicap race on next weeks schedule so can only assume that’s not on the calendar too? Sorry I always doubt my plans when I get there, but generally they stand up. Keep up the great work Ben.

A really good home workout for the core and legs. If new to this, don’t worry about hitting the seconds or reps. Do what you can and slowly build up to the targets.

For example you might find you can only hold a plank for 20 seconds at first, which is fine. Don’t push too hard that you get injured. You’ll soon get strong and be able to add more seconds.

Did this. Had to swap a couple of the exercises as this says it is a gym session, and no idea what a booty buster is (link goes to calf raises). πŸ‘
Ah nuts, sorry gave you the wrong one. Yesterday was just manic. I’ve changed it over so if you wanted to do a printscreen or note the exercises for future reference in case I get it wrong again (made a few mistakes this weekend) πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ Thanks for mentioning the incorrect link as well, I have changed that over. Appreciate that and well done on getting some S&C done.

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

Did yoga at lunchtime – 44 mins. Fourth session and think I may be getting better! πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ€ž Stoolball in the evening. Didn’t bat. Recorded fielding, probably not worth any points.
How did you not bat? Their star man. Who is your selector? I wanna have words. Well done on the yoga!

Zone 2: Easy

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.

As I was helping out with Walk to Run this evening, I planned to do about 70 mins or so this morning, but ended up doing just over 80 mins. Quite a hilly route as started from home, but kept the heart rate under control and even walked for a few seconds at one point on a hill. Then was helping with top group at Walk to Run this evening, but the person I was running with was probably a bit quick for the group, so I ended up just under 9 min mile pace for the 32 minutes run. Did plenty of hills in the park in an effort to slow him down!
Loads of points coming your way in that case. Difficult to know when doing W2R what sort of pace you are going to end up running up. A good day of exercising though and lots of low HR work which is great. Well done Ben.

Control what you can. The warm up, strides, getting the early pace right and staying positive when it gets tough. You got this!!

Did WU, but not CD. Always enjoyed this race and better with the changed start and the second half loop is easier (and flatter) than doing the first half again. Went fairly steady across fields near start due to being only room for one runner, but then sped up a bit when able, and was worried I had gone too fast. But, as seems to be the case currently, was able to maintain the pace and continued to run strong all the way to the end. Happy! πŸ‘
I love how well you are running right now but have this real sense of enjoyment as a result which is brilliant. Ultimately that’s what it’s all about and getting the rewards for your consistent hard work. Sounds like another really well executed and fun race. Great work Ben.

Should feel relatively comfortable this, but always good to get some extra miles in at goal pace.

Did my 10 mins Warm Up and legs felt heavy from the previous night. No problems with the run though, took on 30 min pacer, official time 29:59. 😊 Also did 10 mins cool down.
When it comes to pacing you are my ideal. That is awesome. Good way of banking some extra pts. I love pacers day. Had a blast on Saturday so grateful to all of you for helping out.

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.

Went out early to get it done. 60 mins. πŸ‘
You’re a smart man Ben. Well done!! Average weekly pts went up one to 113 after this week!!
