If you would like to mix it up and run with a variety of different volunteer coaches this month, just let me know\u00a0<strong>BY THE END OF TODAY, FRIDAY.<\/strong>\u00a0 Else I will aim to pair you with only 1 coach the whole month (maybe 2, to make schedules work). Some of you may feel more comfortable running with the same person. Others may enjoy getting to know more than one of our friendly and supportive volunteer coaches. Either is completely fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>As usual, repeat yesterday\u2019s run on Tuesday, and try to get in a 30-35 min total time run this weekend. \u00a0Pair up with someone if you can &#8211; it makes the time go so much faster. \u00a0And encourage each other on your What\u2019sApp group. \u00a0No runner left behind! \u00a0If you are having trouble finding someone to pair with, please let me know &#8211; I know some coaches, and guest coaches, would be happy to run with you on other days to keep you motivated and on schedule.\u00a0<br>Don\u2019t forget to keep it SLOW on Tuesdays.\u00a0 You can get an app for your phone \u2013 I recommend MapMyRun, Strava or RunKeeper \u2013 that will track how fast you are running.\u00a0 You should be running between a 12:00 and 13:30 minute mile\u00a0at the most\u00a0(and it is\u00a0completely\u00a0fine and normal to be slower). \u00a0For your weekend run, it\u2019s OK to go a bit faster because it\u2019s for a shorter time and distance.\u00a0 But don\u2019t kill yourselves!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>This week we will increase our intervals up to 12 minutes.\u00a0 If you hadn\u2019t noticed, we are increasing our time faster now so it is so important to make sure you are getting at least the Tues\/Thurs (or substitute days) in and it will be much easier on you if you are doing that third run on the weekend.\u00a0 It will be easy to suddenly feel like you\u2019re falling behind and we don\u2019t want that to happen!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>I will send out an email early next week with the runner\/coach pairings like I did this week along with a proposed route. \u00a0You don\u2019t have to follow the route &#8211; it\u2019s just a suggestion. \u00a0You can work with your coach about where you want to go. \u00a0And take a selfie! \u00a0I loved seeing the photos from this week&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"759\"
