I appreciate there might be some shuffling needed depending on your location early in the week. But it’s a recovery week so hopefully we can find the time to fit in all in. I have gambled and introduced an effort session. If you have any concerns just start off at a sensible speed and don’t go too fast. Then see how the body reacts. Hopefully it will be fine. Any problems let me know.

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

I was travelling back on Monday, but I wouldn’t have had the strength to train anyway!
No worries. I knew this weeks schedule would be a bit of a mixed bag due to travel

40 Mins Run

40 Mins Run

Zone 2

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.

Very gentle recovery run with braces on left ankle. No ankle pain, no major swelling. It was a piece of cake and made me feel good about that.
Glad this one went well and sensible to wear the brace. The easy runs should definitely always feel “a piece of cake” I ran for 2 hours Saturday and was still easy at the end, just the legs that were tired. But felt I could go all day if I was stronger.

70 Mins Run

Zone 2: Easy

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

First half was ok, on the way back (6km) the wind was blowing against and found it quite difficult. But most importantly I had pain in the ankle. Managed to do 70min, but then I went home limping. No increased swelling, put ive straightaway, I was fine after 10min of raised ankle and ice. But quite disappointing.
Ok, so we need to be careful still. I would take it day by day at the moment and just keep tweaking things depending how the ankle feels. It might just be a case of managing it, but don’t feel obliged to hit the targets if rest is more appropriate.
