We are in the key part of this plan and 2 big exciting sessions this week. Some speed work followed by a key long run. A chance to work on both your mental strength and the fuelling. You got this. We drop back to 120 mins next week too, so that might help push through the discomfort knowing next weeks long run is shorter. Any problems let me know. Keep up the great work Lucy.

Zone 2: Easy

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.

This one was tough, my ankles were hurting a lot. And it was a really hilly route.
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully they improved as the week went on. Well done for completing the run though Lucy

Build up to a long interval session like this. Good to practice a variety of paces and dig deep during those longer middle reps.

Skip this to try and get my ankles and legs feeling fit for the long run
Sensible! Worked out a wise decision as well.

I have been using lots of ibuprofen gel, and cooling gel to bring down the inflammation in my ankles and legs. Feels like it’s starting to work. And still getting my stretches in.
It’s an odd one as to why the ankles are such an issue. Are you getting enough support from your footwear when running? Just thinking of possible causes 🤔

Time to make sure your fuelling and hydration is on point. 30-60g of carbs per hour. The longer the run goes on the tougher it will get.

My legs felt like they were in a good enough state to give us a go today. I wasn’t paying free, but it was a lot better than it was. The weather was awful today, so opted for a treadmill run. I ran out a steady pace, with a short walk every 30 minutes to have a gel, and every hour I increased the pace slightly. This felt strong, my heart rate was steady, I could’ve gone faster, and I could’ve gone longer
This is huge. I was so pleased to see this. Knowing how bad the weather was and the run you had planned, as well as the ankle problems earlier in the week I was kind of expecting you to say you missed this. Not only did you get it done, you smashed it and felt great. Perhaps an option to do the odd treadmill run again in the build up. 3 hours on a treadmill is some achievement so well done Lucy.
