“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
Another really solid week. All about staying consistent. We don’t need to do anything special. Week in week out, keep showing up. You’re smashing it right now. Keep up the great work Lucy!
Not too bad of a week. Got to look at the positives. Had a great run on Weds. Ben joined me and i felt really good in the 4 to 4 and a half mile group. Felt very enthused afterwards. Friday unfortunetely didnt happen..Just too much going on that day..but looking to do the weds night with Ben for a couple of weeks so should get back to 100% weeks. I dont like it when i miss training. Sat parkrun was good. Nice steady effort at my own pace, managing to keep up with Adam and nearly dropping him at one point! Looking forward to track! Nice to get back!
Well done Lucy. I appreciate your mental well being needs to come first and so I’ll never try and force you to train on days you don’t feel up to it. Obviously without that awareness of what the issue is as well it’s not something I would look to get involved in. That said if you ever wanted to discuss, and by that I don’t mean past traumas, but what holds you back now, then perhaps there might be some words of wisdom I can offer to help. I’m just thinking out loud really. Just my way of saying I’m hear to help more if needed, but equally don’t want to step across any lines, given the nature of the situation. I find with my own anxiety, which is no way comparable to yours, that the actual reality is never anywhere near as bad as what I build up in my head.

Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

Keep the effort level down on these easy runs and focus on good running mechanics.

8 x 100 metre Strides (RPE: 8)

Running with others can reduce perceived effort so parkrun is a good option as an alternative speed session. 10 mins easy WU & CD please.
