A slightly lighter week post HHM, and a few days to give the legs a rest. It does mean a pretty big weekend, but a chance to smash out another fast 5k with the first HR race not too far away now. Any problems though, let me know and I will do my best to remedy. Keep up the great work though Philippa.

Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
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.
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.
A challenging but rewarding session where you can experience what it feels like to run at different paces.

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.
