Another week focusing on the strength work and easy runs. Hopefully that will be enough to get over the calf issue and then we can reintroduce the speed work the following week.
Great to the run week. Leg has felt alot better especially the next day when usually I have probs with the calf. Still feels slightly tight the next day but the extra stretches and the extra core work seem to be paying dividends. Ran 90 mins Sunday not 105mins so will be interesting to see how that goes tomorrow but feeling positive and looking forward to trying some speed work this coming week.
Really pleased to hear you are noticing a difference now and were able to do a little extra on Sunday. When we bring the speedwork in, just approach it with a little bit of caution, especially the first few reps. We’ve got loads of weeks left before the big races in March, so don’t need to be running “eye balls out” just yet. Well done Dan.

60 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
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.
0 mins @ RPE 0-1
“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
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.
