A pretty challenging session working on your upper body and the core. Both are important as runners to ensure we continue to run with good form.
A really good week. Again I’m being sensible with the speed work. You could join us if you want. We are doing a similar session in terms of time, but just slightly more intense but if you run at 10k pace rather than 5k pace with the group you should be ok. Entirely up to you. I have put 60 mins easy Wednesday which if means going to Horntye just keep the hills super light, even walk the really tough ones to keep that HR down. Then the long run Sunday. 120pts on the table again. Keep smashing it Dan, any problems, shout.

A good way to boost cardio whilst reducing the risk of injury. The elliptical can tone muscles and improve endurance whilst being gentle on your joints. You might find you have to work quite hard to get your heart rate in Zone 2.
Try and hit a pace somewhere in Zone 5: 10k. If the route is not flat you can focus on heart rate instead and try to avoid drifting into Zone 6. This should feel comfortably hard.
A stretching routine you can do daily to help with your flexibility. 30 seconds for each stretch is plenty.
If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

A good home workout for the legs. No weights needed, but if you do have some that will add to the difficulty. Recoveries around 30-60s. If time is limited then combined two exercises together. So whilst recovering from squats for example you could be doing your calf raises. This could save you as much as 15 mins.
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Keep that heart rate in Zone 2. You might feel like RPE is higher, as it’s a tough exercise, but a good opportunity to really improve your aerobic engine without the heavy impact of running.
