Hi clare and welcome
congrats on making the commitment to run a sub 50 minute 10km and good luck with the venture
yes R stands for REST
and yes, 10k pace is anticipated 10km race pace
however, what you could do is a 4 km time-trial and then provide feedback so that I can adapt your training to suit your ability
the first 8 days of the program are the most important training wise and we would need to juggle a fair amount to accommodate the 'shifts', nothing wrong with trying to find a suitable pattern for you
you have run a a 52 minute 10 km previously, so you have some background at least.
now what I need from you is how you envisage you can work around the program and then also what training you have been doing till now
over to you and let's hope we can find a solution
