A couple of really good runs this week which will set you up nicely for HHM. Firstly the hills session on Tuesday. I know. Sorry. And then the Sunday long run. This is one of the toughest weeks on the plan but hopefully you feel fresh after the Spain trip. Then just 3 weeks until race day. Exciting. Keep up the great work Lou. You got this.

Recoveries: 90 seconds all reps
Credit TRC for this one. Imperative to stick to half marathon pace in that first 15 minute tempo. Otherwise you’ll be too fatigued to hit target 5k pace in the shorter reps.

60 Mins @ Bimble Pace (RPE: 3)
8 x 100 metre Strides (RPE: 8)
60 Second Recoveries
I had to create a new session for you guys. Have fun. 60 mins easy is perfect in terms of training load. Don’t forget those strides as well (if highlighted)

“Easy means Easy! Not 5k pace, not 10k pace, not even marathon pace. Easy pace!! 😉”
Save those legs for the bigger sessions and enjoy running comfortably among the pack.
Thank you.
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.
