Peak week continues — one study hour today, two inbox items worth a look, and a low-impact Z2 day to protect the legs before tomorrow's race-pace session. Race 17 days out.
Seek/LinkedIn job alerts & AI newsletter filtered.
Today (Thu), Week 6 PEAK: Z2 base 45–55min low-impact (different machine to Monday's), conversational HR 122–140, + mobility + sauna. Full gym version on the WOD tab.
Tomorrow (Fri): Race-pace 6–8km @ 4:38/km — key confidence session.
Then Sun 18km peak (cap). Race Sun 9 Aug, ~65min target.
Quiet — nothing new landed in the last 24h. Inbox and category folders both tidy.
Blindspots & growth edges — where do you get in your own way, in the moment? Family beyond the core (Chris, David) still thin.
Thursday · Week 6 PEAK · Z2 base, low-impact + mobility + sauna
Warm-up (~5min): easy spin/row/incline walk, ease HR up to 122–130.
Main (45–55min): continuous Z2 aerobic, HR 122–140, conversational. Different machine to Monday's — rower, bike, elliptical, ski erg or stair master. Split across two machines if it helps, e.g. 25min bike + 20min stair master.
Cool-down (~10min): easy fade + mobility — hips, glutes, lower back (cat-cow, figure-4 glute, standing hamstring); finish in the sauna.
No running today — this is one of only 2 impact-running days/week (Sun long run + Fri quality run). Keep it fully low-impact.
Race-pace 6–8km @ 4:38/km — key confidence session, hold pace, don't chase more.
Weights logging coming soon.
