Hopefully the sciatica is starting to play ball. If not don’t risk Tuesday yet as hills could be the worst thing for it. I’ve just put the plan as it was, so happy to listen to you for input here and ease back if need be. Really hope you are back to full fitness soon.

Hills can really build your strength as well as improve your running form. This session is tough but will really help you make big gains. Use the downhill as a light recovery jog, so exact recovery times can be flexible.
