  • 27th April - 3rd May

Easy miles this week being close to the RTTS. Pretty much the same as doing a mini marathon taper really. Hopefully the chance to explore the trails. Any problems just shout. You could chuck in a 2nd S&C for a run if you prefer, but I guessed that wouldn’t have been your first choice πŸ˜‚

Yeah, this was OK. Legs felt a bit tight in places, to be expected. Nothing too difficult except the pushups and pullups (usual too!).
One day you’ll be like “I really enjoyed this today”. Or maybe not. Credit where credit is due for getting it done though. Well done Sam.

27pts | 90 Mins Run

27 POINTS

90 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

Keep this nice and easy. Focus on good form & efficient running economy. RPE should be around the 3/10 which means you can run and chat.

Can’t make Tuesday off-road as we have a band practice (recording at the weekend) so had to get something done during my lunch break – did 74 mins (13k) at easy pace, legs pretty sore and tight from the long weekend and S&C yesterday, but got it done fine. I’ll run to Horntye and back to get the time up for this week.
No worries, possibly for the best to cut it a little short if the legs are still tired, and hardly surprising. Although running on tired legs is a key part of ultra training. Remind me of the extra tomorrow otherwise I might deprive you of the points you deserve. May see you there if the kids don’t wear me out in the morning.

22pts | 60 Mins & Strides

22 POINTS

Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜

30 Points
No strides but I ran 81 minutes (14k) with some decent hills. Glad I didn’t do strides as I was desperate for the loo so the run home was exciting!
80 mins with hills, nice. Some bonus pts coming your way. I didn’t need to give you 15 yesterday after all. Can you send them back please? πŸ˜‚ No worries about the strides, although having done them for the first time in 6 months at the weekend I now believe I need to be doing them more. Such a good training tool. So try and squeeze them in if you can.

18pts | 60 Mins Run

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.

24 Points
Nice evening trail run with Laura, 10k (62 mins) with 200m of elevation.
Easy hills!! 24pts all day long. Just realised the Tuesday feedback I replied to was from last week so the comment about the S&C may not apply? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Pycknyck were recording all weekend so I had a late night Saturday and had to get back in the studio Sunday (to do not much in fairness as all drums done previous day) so Laura and I set out on an easy 15k, nice mix of trails and road – 91 mins @ ~6.04. No niggles, congestion getting better, legs feel OK
Sounds perfect from a running perspective. Poor Laura, I’m starting to know what it’s like to be a relationship with a musician. Didn’t see Jax all weekend πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜‚
