Delighted that you have chosen to continue as I really feel like good things are starting to happen. Track on a Monday being one of those and it’s great to see you putting in the hard work and having the support of others around you.
I’m really pleased you took the step to join Hastings Runners and I’m sure you’ll make some great friends via track and the Wednesday group. Friendship is the biggest thing I’ve got from my running down the years and would have quit a long time ago had it not been for my running buddies.
The new plan is fairly simple. Intervals on the Monday and easy midweek run, hopefully with the Wednesday gang and then a weekend run which will vary. There isn’t currently a race in the plan so as soon as you find one which excites you, let me know.
I might need to make a few tweaks depending on the dates. March would be the ideal month, that’s when there are lots of races to choose from and the weather is improving.
The S&C will also be very important now that you’ve stopped the PT sessions. If motivation dwindles then let me know. But this is an area you can still make gains on and potentially even add a second session if you wanted at some stage.
I’ve adjusted your ratings slightly to highlight your progress of late. If there is anything in there you don’t agree with then feel free to change them.
Just to reiterate what I said the other day, it’s nice to have some members on the team who are super determined to run much faster and train everyday, but the variety is what makes my job so much fun, as do the different personalities I work with and your sense of humour along with you somewhat light hearted approach (this is a compliment I can assure you), makes me happy, and I really enjoy working with you. So thank you. Keep being you.
