Honestly I’m so excited for Sunday. Cannot wait. A nice race for you given what you have achieved in the past month or so. An opportunity just to go out there and run to how you feel on the day. So no need to set targets or goals, just see how it goes and lap up the support. What a great week to be a runner in Hastings.

A really good session to do as a group the week in the lead up to a half marathon. It gives you an opportunity to run a few miles at goal pace and also get some speed in the legs. Be sure to stick to HM pace though, any quicker and it defies the object of the session and you will be tired on race day.
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.

Stick to your goal pace early on and it should feel easy. Dig deep in those final 5km to achieve your goal. The biggest mistake you can make is getting swept along in the early stages and going off too fast.
