Monday's session is another 10k pace session but with slightly longer reps than in the previous weeks. The session is 5 x 5 minutes at 10k pace with a 3 minute jog recovery. With these longer reps it is important to judge the pace accurately and if anything, err on the side of slightly slower as if the wheels fall off through going too fast, a 5 minute effort is a long time to be struggling. Try to keep the effort absolutely even on each rep although the pace will vary up and down depending on the slope of the road.
The route for this one is the Sainsbury's loop which gives a good mixture of flat, uphill and downhill for approximately one third of each lap. Warm up via Strathaven Rd and around to Sainsbury's main gate, immediately after which the first rep starts.
