I appreciate there might be some shuffling this week. I also know you said you were doing a lo of travelling this week. I’ve changed out efforts for a tempo run. HM pace for 45 mins should fair relatively comfortable but it’s good a way to get the heart rate up a little without putting too much strain on the foot. Any issues let me. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Hope you have a good week Lucy πŸŽ„

10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)

Practicing goal race pace is essential, especially for a half marathon. It’s important we hit our targets in training so on race day it feels achievable.

Done! 45 mins @ 5 mins per km. On the treadmill. Foot good! EDIT: Also did 10 min warm up but only 5 mins cooldown
This is fantastic news and great pace too. I think this approach to slowly ease you back into efforts is a much more sensible one now and will hopefully give the foot more time to recover. Then if all goes well we can add the quicker workouts back in, but no hurry to do that.

Always fun to train in a group. Ask for help if unsure on your technique on the exercises.

15kg Bicep Curls? Wow that is impressive. A really great session and I think it’s important even as runners to work the upper body as well. Especially when doing marathons and that’s a lot of arm swings we have to do in 26.2 miles. Great work Lucy!!

130 Mins @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3-5)

Pushing beyond that 2 hour barrier is a good mental win. Important to be fuelling and staying hydrated on these runs.

Did a lovely 129 min long run up to bedgebury and back. Think I was grinning the whole way round – perfect cold sunny day and it felt so good to be back running longer distances again. Loved it! Foot hurts but no more than the other long runs in previous weeks – seems as though it can cope with high volume much better than high intensity. PS yesterday’s 15kg bicep curls was total weight so a pair of 7.5s – I wish I could do 15kg each πŸ’ͺ🏼πŸ’ͺ🏼
This is great. So pleased you enjoyed it too. Also takes away that pressure from the rest of the week now, knowing you’ve done most of the hard work. 60 mins Sunday would be plenty…….I did cross my mind when I got into the gym today and started doing my own 15kg barbell bicep curls that you may have been referring to that. But still very impressive. Have a fantastic Christmas Lucy.

Zone 2: Easy

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.

Did the 60 min easy run today because I had the time and felt the need to move! Might do another little easy run on Sunday if feeling ok
Well done Lucy. If you do run Sunday keep it short. You’d feel a right plonker if the foot went again doing something more than was on the plan. 30 mins perhaps? But glad this one went well.
