Training guide review
Smashed my sub-3 thanks to Nick and this training guide. Bring on the sub 2:45 one next!

Broke sub-3
The exact amount of detail that you need. It made me work harder than I have in the past, but at the same time, a nice balance where I didn't feel like I was over working.

Sub-25 minutes broken by over a minute, thanks to this training guide. Different to how I have trained in the past, loved the structure.
