If you do need to switch things up though for the challenge, just let me know, it’s easily done. Keep up the great work Michael. I’ve given you extra rest from the Eastbourne half, so reduced the target, if you wanted to do some arms and core to boost that, as they are missing from the schedule this week. Any problems just shout.

Hills can really build your strength as well as improve your running form. This session is tough but will really help you make big gains. Use the downhill as a light recovery jog, so exact recovery times can be flexible.

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 good all round session to work the legs. You should have built up to this fairly gradually, so don’t dive in head first as you want to take your time building your strength. Be sensible with the weights to begin with.
If short on time combine 2 exercises together (superset) them to save on the recoveries.
parkrun is the best!!! Every Saturday at 9am. A great opportunity to push our effort levels and run alongside other people. Make sure you get there nice and early for your WU & Strides. I normally aim for 8:15 to give myself plenty of time.
