45 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

The only real mistake you can make here is going too fast. Try and pick a flat route as well. Hills will push that RPE too high.

I swapped the easy runs around. As I’ve got more time to spare on Friday morning. My glute and back are also not great after too much sitting and travelling yesterday. So lots of icing and stretching over the next couple of days and hopefully it will feel a bit better running on Friday. I do feel like the work I’ve been doing to improve my form is starting to pay off. Really trying to stay tall and relaxed and keep my feet moving quickly underneath me rather than in front of me. Hopefully it will just become the way I run soon and something I have to think about less. Beautiful run along the canal.

I do love a canal run. I wouldn’t worry too much if you always have to focus on good form. That’s mindfulness right there, so good to keep sticking with it. The likelihood of improving your form is that the worst version of it, when you really tire, is likely to far improved. That’s the way I see it as a runner. You make an interest point about the glutes. I took 3 days off after Robertsbridge, pretty much spent exclusively sitting, went to run Tuesday and both my glutes were not interested. It’s hard when work and travel are involved but I think it highlights the damage sitting can do. Note to self. Use my stand up desk more. Well done Alice.
