Great, thank you. Having thought about your first answer more, it makes sense not to combine the weight vest with Z3. I’ll stick to Z3 training and incorporate as much uphill as I can squeeze in over the interval.
Cheers again

Thanks for the reply Dada. I’m unsure though. My understanding of the Z3 being an uphill workout, rather than say a tempo run on the flat, was that it IS a form of ME and builds on the ME benefit of previous weeks…? Still, this is more preferable to me than more routine ME work.

Ah, thanks Aaron – I hadn’t clocked that.

Great, thank you. I’ll just soak up the extra Z1.

I can’t see any Z4 on the training plan though – only Z3 uphill intervals from week 10 onwards – am I missing something?

Thanks for getting back to me Scott – much appreciated

I’ll start the plan now then – good to get going…

For those intervening 6 weeks, I’ll taper again as the 2nd race approaches but prior to this are there any particular weeks of the training plan that I should aim to repeat in order to maintain fitness?

Thanks again

Simon
