Without weights they are still very beneficial, so keep at it. These arabesques can be done before you run during your warm-up; when cooling down; or separately \u2014 whatever works for you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Session 5<\/h2>\n<p>1 set is approximately 400m run at 5k pace plus recovery (use the time from the table below).<br \/>\nRecovery is the same time, run at a jog or a very easy pace (approx 200m).<\/p>\n<p>Run 8, 10 or 12 sets depending on usual training volume (approx 4.8k, 6k, or 7.2k total).<\/p>\n<p>Cool-down with 10-15 minutes of easy running.<\/p>\n<h4>Rep times according to 5k race time.<\/h4>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 62.2266%; height: 295px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\"><strong>5k race time <br \/>\nin minutes<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\"><strong>400m rep time<br \/>\nmins : seconds<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">32<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">2:33<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">30<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">2:24<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">28<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">2:14<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">26<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">2:04<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">24<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">1:55<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">22<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">1:45<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">20<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">1:36<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">18<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">1:26<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\">16<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41.3958%;\">1:17<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For more details of these sessions see the introduction and Week 1.
