I’ve stuck your Pilates in there (still doing that?). 60 mins Pilates is worth 10 more pts, so only seemed fair to include it. 135pts up for grabs this week which is a really good level to be working at. We are still building the endurance with the longer runs before the big marathon sessions come in the new year. Any problems just shout. Keep up the great work Lindsey.
Really good week! I know I did 2 extra 5ks but they both was kept super easy. Legs are feeling fine. 😊
It’s an impressive week in terms of training pts. 161 to be precise. You know what I’m going say. Just be careful. I made the mistake of going off plan slightly and doing an extra run and that was about 8 weeks ago. Managed 10 miles this week, my most for a long time and if I could I wish I could go back to that week I cocked it up and did too much. I just don’t want you to have those same thoughts, especially when things are going too well. It’s having that awareness that anything over 110% of training (you were 119% this week) is actually going to damage your fitness because you’re not getting that recovery to allow to body to make those adaptations. But on a positive it does highlight your potential going forward to increase the training targets, but I’d rather do that by adding in more strength work and possibly some cross training than extra miles. All that said. Well done Lindsey and thanks again for leading several times, it really is appreciated.
Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

Try and hit those target times if you can. Work hard to make gains 💪
Trust your PT.
Always explain to your PT what else you are doing this week so they can adjust the session accordingly.
Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜

All about time on feet. Don’t focus on pace. Instead keep that effort level down and concentrate on good running economy. Fuelling and hydration key too.
