Training Thursday 2nd April

Continuing on the theme of using the time we now have to consolidate the basics of our running fitness, I suggest that today's session is a medium long run of up to 10 miles/16km. Start off easy for the first half (ie very conversational) and then gradually ramp the pace/effort up until the second last mile is at about 10k pace/effort then wind it down to conversational for the last mile. Obviously as we are running solo, conversational means talking to yourself but the streets will be quiet enough that nobody will think you are crazy!

Finally, finish off with 6 x 100m fast strides and don't forget to stretch when you get home. A stretching video is on the filming schedule.
