The finale of plan 4. I just want to say, as a friend (hopefully) as well as your coach, just how proud I am of you. You’ve smashed it. You work so hard, getting up early, leading TWR, all the S&C. You’ve had quite a few knock backs with the parkruns not going as well as you would like (so far), but you dust yourself off and go again, week in week out. You’re an inspiration and I’m quite emotional writing this. I hope you too are proud of yourself for your commitment. This week? 160 mins is the planned P2P run. We’ve got a couple of light weeks in between that an efforts. Any issues let me know how. So glad you decided to reach out to me as it’s a pleasure just to be part of what you do. Keep going!! The best is yet to come.

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.

A really good session to practice 5k pace but then also get some speed into the legs. The real challenge will be holding 5k pace in the last 2 reps and that’s when we replicate what it feels like to have to dig deep late in a 5k race.

Zone 2

The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

160 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

This is the sort of distance where fuelling is now a priority. You’ll also start to get tired legs, but unless there is any specific pain, keep going, you’ll be amazed how far you can run on tired legs.
