Consistency is everything. We can move a few things around if need be but hopefully this feels achievable. Up to 120 pts now which is a really good level to be working at. Ultimately what we want to discover is the perfect pts level for you that feels achievable, so if this feels too much we can always look to drop it back down. But hopefully it will be ok. Keep up the great work Jan.

109 Points Achieved

10pts | 60 Mins Pilates

10 POINTS

Always a good session to work on flexibility and strength.

10 Points
A good all round session – focus on upper body strength, abs, hip strength and glutes.
Your pilates classes sound fab!! If you ever feel tired some weeks, I think dropping an S&C, having done such a good session on a Monday is never going to effect your overall fitness much. Something just to bear in mind as I know the schedule has felt busy of late. Well done Jan

12pts | Jan’s S&C

12 POINTS

NOTE: You can click on any of the exercises to view a tutorial.

*Signifies you need to do each side (so twice the number of reps)

This should be a good all round workout which will hopefully help with you keep those niggles at bay. The idea being we can slowly add to these. Those doing the best with their strength are the ones who keep it simple and consistent, week in week out.

If time is ever an issue. You can do some supersets. What is a superset? It means combined 2 exercises together, ideally ones that are different.

For example you might do 1 set of Bent Knee Calf Raises, and rather than just twiddle your thumbs for 60 seconds before doing the next set, you do a wall sit inbetween.

Pleased to get these done as muscles still tight and achy from Sunday’s football tournament and last night’s pilates. The rolling afterwards really helps to loosen things off.
Well done Jan, some excellent strength work done already this week. I really must do more foam rolling myself, that is something I’m not great at.

22pts | 60 Mins & Strides

22 POINTS

Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜

22 Points
Really enjoyable run, catching up with people I haven’t seen for sometime. The Strides weren’t as daunting as I thought they would be. Not brilliant at working out distance so not sure if my faster pace was run for the distance they should have been. A nice challenge though and enjoyed doing something a bit different.
That’s the best thing about Horntye. I got to run and chat to one of the runners I coach who I’ve never ever run with before. It was great. Well done on the strides too. It’s just a good opportunity to focus on your form and put a bit of speed in the legs.

9pts | 30 Mins Swim

9 POINTS

Enjoy. Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training.

28pts | Club Intervals

28 POINTS

It all depends on the nature of the session as to how hard you want to work. The longer the reps, the slightly slower the pace will be. Or if doing hills, focus on RPE rather than pace. But you always want to be working hard to ensure you make the necessary gains.

29 Points
Swim – done Ants Efforts: 6 x 475 metres Using cones -running to first, touching the ground then back to start, touching the ground, running to second then back to start up to 6 cones with a 2 minute rest following each 6. Anthony impressed with the consistency of my pace 4 of which ranged from 2.36 – 2.39 Great session – tough but felt good. 10 mins warm up and cool down
I like Anthony. I’ve always been impressed with him as a coach. And looking at your splits here this ended up as a good workout and hitting the 20pts we initially had in the plan. Ignore the 28pts for the title, I had to change that as Monday track sessions are suddenly more demanding (more like AC sessions, you didn’t hear that from me). Really well done Jan, and nice of Anthony to compliment you. Little things like that make a big difference to us as runners.

36pts | 120 Mins Run

Long runs are key. Fuel and hydrate well & join a group if you can.

36 Points
A lovely run today taking in London Parks and the Thames Tow Path – great to be running somewhere different and mostly traffic free. Some tightness is left Achilles and hamstring but otherwise fine.
Very jealous and the day before London Marathon too, that’s pretty cool. Well done Jan. Keep an eye on that hamstring but doesn’t sound like anything out of the ordinary. Another strong week completed. Hope you enjoy the marathon tomorrow. We plan to head up to watch.
