60 Mins Cycling @ Easy Pace
RPE: 1
A good way to add some extra cardio with the reduced impact and lower training load.
This was due to be the week we reintroduced the speed work but based on recent feedback let’s be smart and chuck in at least one more week of aerobic work. I have added an extra 20 mins of running so we are still making a bit of progress. Any problems just shout. Let’s hope that calf starts to behave this week.

A good way to add some extra cardio with the reduced impact and lower training load.
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.
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.
70 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Keep the effort level down on these easy runs and focus on good running mechanics.
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.
