Keeping it the same this week just due to those missed weeks and then we’ll see how things go before potentially ramping it up again. Keep up the good work Rebekah.
Went to physio, he’s tried loosening off a muscle on the outside of the leg. It’s the one that stabilises the foot/ankle. Could be compressing the nerve a bit too. Got some physio to do and he recommends taking an easy run on Monday to see if it’s improved or not. I will see how that goes and repeat this week if all goes OK? Also got some new running shoes to try out and see if that helps- my current ones I’ve had for 4 years now… annoyed that I couldn’t complete Mondays session cos the sprints I did do felt OK aside from the knee. Again, I’m sorry my body is not capable of what it used to be. I’m hoping I can reverse, if not improve that.
That’s ok. Good idea to get some advice off the physio, and hopefully that will help going forward. All the time you feel I’m helping you, let’s keep going. But obviously if the issue continues, then we can have a chat about pausing. It’s a horrible feeling when I take someone’s money and feel like I can’t help. And I never want to reach that stage.
*Recoveries: 60 secs
Love 200s. Train faster to race faster. Go smash it. Enjoy.
Keep the RPE down, have a chit chat & Don’t forget those strides 😜

Recoveries: 90s – 120s (should roughly match the time it takes to do the 400 metre rep)
Adding to the distance again to improve the speed endurance. Don’t worry if the pace drops a little. In fact I would encourage that here to ensure you keep the speed consistent for the whole rep. Dig deep. These sessions are tough but it’s where our fitness improves and the real magic happens.
