So the photo is my variant of roseabi’s plan. Biggest tweak is moving the long runs in general to Saturday, shuffling the other days to fit and adding a bit of extra running over the Christmas and New Year breaks.
Items in red writing are difficult work days - where there is a run I may have to swap things around that week, avoiding other red days.
Most weeks have 3 runs and follow my favoured Mon, Wed, Sat.
Any observations/criticisms welcomed.

Looks great to me! I'm enjoying seeing how others are tweaking the plan to suit their needs. I'm currently midway through a different plan but was thinking of using roseabi's on my next go in the summer. Thanks for sharing!
What are you doing for your cross training. I don't add Cross training myself but I have various other activities I do I'm just not regimented with it. This plan has got me to start thinking about alternatives I could do with more regularity.
For my part, I'm lucky to live on an old farm next to woods and a common. I also have some fitness equipment and lots of animals. So cross for me, will typically mean one of the following:
My initial “easy option” is to walk. I could do my 5k run as a brisk walk fairly easily. It has the benefit of becoming about 6k because there’s no warm up walk for a walk. And I could extend the turning point slightly to drop in for a glass of water or similar from my favourite bar...
I’d prefer to swim and I might get my finger out and organise that some of the time.
