A relatively light week in terms of the running. Just getting back in to good habits and building that aerobic base. But all by all means add in a group session if you wanted.

Tina Treble

30 POINTS

This is a lot but was fun!
I probably wouldn’t recommend this much all together, but was happy to include it as you enjoy it. And to be honest I don’t see a problem so long as we get he necessary rest later in the week. And you’ve got Wed free now which should help there. But a fantastic start to the week with 30 training pts banked already. Well done Tina.

50 Mins & Strides

19 POINTS

This went well. A friend came with me and even did the strides with me. I probably could have gone a bit slower but overall I never stopped so was pleased with that. If I had been on my own I might have walked as I find it harder to keep a steady pace. Running to minutes is good for me as I focus less on the distance and don’t give myself such a hard time. It was very windy!!!! I did the strides and half were up a bit of a hill. Forgot how hard these were especially after 3 days of activity. All in all I think I did ok!
Great work Tina. Yeah I think mins is a good option, as you say, then you don’t focus so much on pace or the distance. I’m a big advocate of running with others or in groups, as you found here it can definitely help with motivation. Well done for the strides as well. They’ll get easier the more often you do them.

45 Mins Run

14 POINTS

This was good. I ran on the ridge so not quite flat but close enough. I also decided not to look at my watch and just go on ‘feel’ and trying to keep a steady pace. It is so warm out still for the time of year. A bit rainy but no wind-perfect running weather. I did a stretch class straight after this run which felt great.
Love this. And I think this is a best approach for now. Run to feel, don’t worry about the pace and just try and enjoy it. I know right? How good has the weather been. It’s still so mild. Excellent work Tina!

110 Mins Easy

33 POINTS

I decided to do this on Sat and forgo the weights as the weather was just so beautiful. I didn’t find it easy as still getting back to long runs however I got it done. Just really working on being kind to myself and reminding myself that I am getting out there and doing it. Proud of myself for being motivated to run 10 miles on my own on a Saturday afternoon. Given the weather today, I think I made the right choice!
Very good idea to make the most of the better weather. Sunday was a bit gloomy. I think having that approach and removing the pressure from yourself is the way forward. We’re in the early stages on this plan so it’s just a case of getting out there right now, ticking off the miles and keep telling yourself what a strong runner you are. Excellent work Tina.
