Only two weeks to go, this is our last serious training week.

Unfortunately, I’m still battling my injured foot so I’ll be taking it fairly easy again this week. But, at this stage of preparation, you should be feeling at your peak.

The idea it to use this last serious training week to focus on your endurance and speed with some short runs with effort and then one final long run at the end of the week.

Try lengthening your stride. By adding only a few centimetres per stride, you can take minutes from your 14km time.

Good luck.
