Week Commencing: 1st June 26

  • Sunday

So Friday. Try the following. WU. 1 Mile @ 7:15, 1 Mile @ 7:05, 1 Mile @ 6:50, 1 Mile @ 6:40, CD. That assumes flat route and calm conditions, so if it’;s not we can adjust the paces slightly, but then we can check the HR data and get a much better idea of your LT2. Sunday? Lots of us are doing the Weald Challenge if you fancy using that for your long run. Could just jog round enjoying the trails and come for some lunch afterwards. Paul L and Sam D among those running.

Total of 21 mins of efforts!! A good opportunity to work on a variety of paces across varied reps. The shorter the rep, the quicker you go.

Thanks for tonight Simon. That is quite a crowd of runners especially when they are all talking. Great session. Donโ€™t listen to me when Iโ€™m tired because Iโ€™m full of false information. I didnโ€™t run the first rep anywhere near as quickly as I said. I actually ran 6โ€™10โ€ minute mile average over the session so not crazy fast but still very pleased.
๐Ÿ˜‚ That’s ok. I remember that in future. Yeah it was a good session. Such a nice group of people. Everyone working hard and being nice to each other. What more could you ask for. Well done for putting in a decent shift as always.

Zone 2-3: Easy/Steady

Likely your heart rate will climb as you run up the hills, so don’t worry too much about drifting into Zone 3 for the hills, try and keep the rest in Zone 2.

Great run with Paul Lambert. Very steady and low heart rate. Felt good to stretch my legs the last 300m
Paul is such a good run leader. Glad you enjoyed this one. Love how you get to run with so many awesome people all the time.

Pretty simple Half Marathon session. Just a chance to dial in that race pace again and for 7km it should feel comfortable. Don’t go faster because you can, that’s not the point of this session. Enjoy.

That was tough. I was running into a strong breeze on the way out so was a bit over pace but I made that up on the way back and did the last mile under pace. I was having to push myself most of the way. Feel like this will make me stronger. See you on Sunday.
Great work Conal. I was a good trial. I think you’ll benefit from some longer rep tempo based runs, but we might still focus on pace rather than heart rate, simply due to my worry that your watch data is that reliable. It’s good to keep trying new stuff and find new ways to improve. Sunday should be great. I think everyone I have asked wants to come to lunch, could be 16-20 of us ๐Ÿ˜‚

Zone 2

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.

Just realised I havenโ€™t filled this. I ran at a comfortable quick pace behind a small group who knew where they were going so I didnโ€™t worry about wrong turnings. Realised at the last minute that I was at the finish and just under two hours so I put a little sprint on and went past them which hadnโ€™t been my intention but I was only under by a few seconds and wanted to be sure. Lovely route and great company with all the HR crowd. I was almost dozing off in the pub. Well done Sam Davies, twenty minutes quicker than I was.
Fantastic running Conal. That was a great route wasn’t it. The kms flew by. It wasn’t until the big hill at km 17 I started thinking about the finish line. I know what you mean about Sam. How did he average 4:30 per km on that route? Impressive running. Equally a fine run by yourself too. A star coming your way. Neil questioned why you didn’t have any? But now you’ve done 5 weeks on the spin hitting the target, so you get a star ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ˜‚
