Week 4 of summer running. Time to add aerobic threshold (aka Ae T or easy tempo) to the weekly training. Either Tue or Fri, whichever fits your schedule the best, add aerobic threshold running. Warm up early in your run, and cool down at the end. In the middle, push your effort to 72.5-75%. Generally, this effort is about 1:10-ish slower than current 5k fitness. Adjust for the heat and humidity. The rest of your running for the week remain easy, 60-65%. Strength & conditioning continues, as does the Thursday 6-8 x 60-80m hill sprints.
As always, if unsure about anything, or have any questions, reach out.
Lastly, maintaining proper sodium levels is essential and a lot of sodium is lost while running. With the summer heat and humidity, sodium loss is even more extreme. The basic advice would be to make sure your are salting your food to taste when you eat. Drinking a sports drink, even adding a little salt to it, BEFORE and after runs is beneficial and recommended.
