Every now and again I’ll be setting a weekly schedule and this tingle of excitement comes over me. In this case it’s the fact we are so close. Less than 14 days and I know how well prepared you are, I think that’s why I got excited. Obviously this week we reign it in a little, listen to the body, if at any stage you feel tired don’t be afraid to take a bit more rest. The half marathon tempo is just there to get the heart rate up a little. Keep going Rebecca, so close now.

You can superset two exercises together. I’ve tried to set it up like that. So you would do 15 reps of deadlifts, straight into 10 reps of Tricep Dips, and then repeat 3 times. Helps save on recoveries and can make the session shorter. It’s not essential, but an option.

Another step closer as that’s the last S&C of this training plan. Thinking about next plans, I have no idea. A lot will depend on how the marathon goes. After that I’ll take a couple of weeks off to recover, then we’re on holiday from beginning to mid May. I’ll have a think whilst I’m away and give you shout when I’m back??
That’s good to tick that off. Yeah no rush post marathon, take the time. If you can keep ticking over with the S&C (have one whole week off exercise), then you won’t lose much of the strength you’ve built up. More than happy to have a chat about goals when you’re ready. I still think your best running and times are still to come. But we’ll talk about that another day. Great work Rebecca.

If you have an accurate heart rate, then use that as your main data to determine pace, if not RPE is the best option. Hills are always going to cause them to go too high, unless you are super fit. Finish off with some strides.

Done, no problem. Good to get out with the group and in the light!
What a difference the daylight makes. Well done Rebecca.

A good opportunity to practice your half marathon goal pace during a midweek tempo run. Factor in hills and weather, which may effect pace, in which case nail the right RPE.

Done, despite being windy was able to keep target place. Pleased with that run
Fantastic work Rebecca. Good to get some miles in at a quicker pace and get the legs turning over.

Try and keep it easy. It all depends on your current level. If slowly adding time to your long run the last 10-20 mins might be tough. Focus on good form.

All good – enjoyed park run. Ran with Phillipa, perhaps a bit face but I felt strong on 10 minute miles… one more down… two to go!
Great to see you both. Always nice to see the team running together and looking happy. So close now. Trying to find a way that I can get myself over there for race day and see you all come across the line. Just need to be nice to Jax this weekend so she will let me, as want to go and watch another of the team Saturday too 🙄 Well done Rebecca.
