150 pts. Love that. Romney Marsh 10k Sunday which is a fast and flat one if you did fancy a race? But otherwise keep doing what you are doing. I think if we go beyond this plan (hope we do), having a goal race in mind which allows us to be a bit more specific with the sessions would help and probably bring out the best in you over that distance. My approach is generally pick a different distance for each plan I do, thus giving each one a bit more variety to the last. Keep up the great work Lou and any problems just shout.

A really good way to get your S&C in. A full body workout with barbells will really aid your running and reduce the risk of injury.

A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Use Heart Rate as the main data field here and keep it in Zone 2 for this session. Adjust the level to ensure you fall into that zone.

Enjoyed both
There was a moment 10 minutes into my 40 min stair climb that I questioned my life choices. But like you, in the end, I enjoyed it. Great work Lou.

10 Mins CD

Zone 2: Easy

A chance to build your speed endurance. 10k pace is the target here. Ideal for runners who tend to do 10k races in 50 mins+

The heat is getting to me. So jealous it doesn’t affect you, you’re so lucky! Only managed 20mins but did the remaining 10 mins on Sundays run.
I did wonder where that Sunday 10 mins tempo came from. Well done for finding a way Lou. And got to push the pace a little here.

Zone 2: Easy

A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Find the level which means your heart rate is in zone 2. If you go other that, reduce the level. It’s that simple.

Heart Rate is the key metric here, try and ensure you are working in the right zone. RPE might feel higher on the elliptical to hit that range. It may take 5-10 mins for your heart rate to climb into the right zone whilst you warm up.

All good
Boom!!! Well done Lou

Long runs are key. Fuel and hydrate well & join a group if you can.

Day off so thought I’d get the LR done. So hot 🥵 looked like someone had thrown a bucket of water at me 💦. RPE higher due to the heat
😂 Well done though for making the most of your time off. Impressive to get 2 hours in those conditions and it will always be harder in the sun. Great work Lou

Lifting heaviest weights in the class now, so working hard 😓, but still enjoying it 🙂

50 Mins Run

Zone 2: Easy

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.

Did the missing 10 min tempo alongside the 50 min easy run. Tired legs today. What worries me about hill efforts is my calves. Is it worth getting them tight and sore and risking injury? I’ve run the Romney Marsh 10k before, way too hot for me, hated it
I think I enjoyed the race. The route itself was very non descript and whilst dead flat, not a PB opportunity given the heat (and wind). So I don’t blame you. No worries about the hills, I think if there is any concern on your part, then avoiding it is sensible. We’ll stick to the plan as laid out. But really well done for hitting your targets this week.
