Running Training 19/12/2016 – 25/12/2016

Training is finished!! This week is just a fun and casual week, winding down to a nice week off.

Monday

Easy 7 miles (last mile hard) – Went out for a nice easy 7 mile run, felt great so just pushed for a last hard mile. This is just the philosophy I have taken over the second half of the year due to other peoples feedback of finishing stronger on runs. I don’t do it on every run but just when I feel like it.

Tuesday

Went out for another nice easy run, this time with James for 10 miles. Again, kept the HR low and just plodded around clocking up the easy miles working on the base fitness.

Wednesday

Rest

Thursday

Typical me….went for a final easy run before stopping for a week, got to mile 5 and wanted to up the tempo so did a harder final 2 miles, rounding up my total for 25 miles on the final week.

Friday

Rest

Saturday

Sunday

Summary

Lovely and easy week, absolutely over the moon with the second half of the year and delighted to finish strong and can’t wait to kickstart 2017!
