weeks 4, 5, 6 and 7

These middle stages of training were most important as this would be where my components of fitness results would come from and is where I was working my hardest to get the most gains as I could from my programme it self for the half marathon race. This would mean a higher RPE them from the first three weeks, progressive overload for each week for duration would increase and running longer distances for aerobic fitness. A main training principle that was a major factor for me was enjoyment, if I did not enjoy training them I would most likely lose interest  So to counter this mean using cross training affectively like going to the beach running or tweaking training days in new running routes. Rest and recovery was a big factor as well from a high work load this mean warming up and down before and after training sessions had to be done properly in order to avoid injury once more.
