Another strong week with 120pts on the table. Tuesday is a little out of sync with the original plan due to last week missed session, just in case you wondered why it wasn’t hills. Tempo Saturday is to allow you to pace at parkrun. Picking the time closest to your HM pace would be ideal. Any issues let me know but keep up the great work Ben.
Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.

Ideally you’re looking to match or beat your current 5k pace. This is a really simple but effective session. Working to time rather than distance allows you to do these sessions with runners of different ability. Very best of luck,
A stretching routine you can do daily to help with your flexibility. 30 seconds for each stretch is plenty.

60 Second Recoveries
I had to create a new session for you guys. Have fun. 60 mins easy is perfect in terms of training load. Don’t forget those strides as well (if highlighted)

30 Mins @ HM Pace (RPE: 6)

A good opportunity to practice your half marathon goal pace during a midweek tempo run. Factor in hills and weather, which may effect pace, in which case nail the right RPE.
