60 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 60 minute swim replaces an easy run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.
So I have tweaked the plan up until your brothers wedding weekend runs. But I think it’s important to keep it relatively light this week just so we are happy the ankle is ok. We support the running with a 60 min swim and some really good strength work. Then if this week goes well, we can jump up to 90 mins next weekend. Any problems let me know. Hopefully your bad luck is behind you now 🤞

The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.
It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.
If you have accurate heart rate data that is far and away the best guide for this run. Stay in Zone 2 if you can.

A good session to focus on strengthening your ankles and knees. Adjust the reps and time based on your current strength levels.
