80pts for the first time and that’s not including the skipping. I’ve gone for stairs over the elliptical as I think it’s much easier to work at the right level on there (in terms of heart rate). I have shared my feedback with the “head coach” about the track sessions, so let’s see if they listen and what they come up with this week 🤷‍♂️ Any issues just shout but loving the consistency right now.

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.

It’s important to keep the easy runs easy. Focus on good running form and low heart rate.

Jax said I can swear! Shit week. A week I was dreading. Knew it would come but didn’t know when. Couldn’t get out to do anything this week. Managed a slow parkrun. That’s it. Didn’t do the extra bits. Will get back to it. Not sure I’ll be good enough for the 5mile now. Feel like I’m back to the start again.
Sorry you’ve had such a tough week Shana. It’s a horrible thing to have to go through and important to take the time you need. You won’t have gone back to the start though so don’t worry about that. If you can find the resolve to get back on track next week that would be awesome but no pressure or expectation from me. All I would say is it’s often how we react in the tough times that really brings out the best in us. And you did that today, getting to parkrun and running, so you can do it, you are strong and determined. Here to chat as well if need be, and yes swear as much as you fucking like. 😂

Thank you for the last feedback! It meant a lot and gave me a boost! The gym was busy today. Managed a few mins of skipping although I didn’t time it. Didn’t want to go in the sensory room to skip next to the skipping man in case I became competitive and ended up doing a skip off in my head with him! so squashed over in the other weights area. Managed all on the list, yes including the planks! Apart from booty buster (seems to be more popular than the Harry Potter ride at Disney!) And the calf machine which was free all the time I was on other machines. Good to be back! Although the grief is still there and pops up every now and then to remind me not to get too happy! Like you say, these things build us and make us stronger. Oh fuck! I forgot to swear!
😂 Thanks for making me laugh. And glad my feedback helped. Sounds like this was a successful session and I think you’ve done well this week to get in some decent training given the circumstances. Good to see you in the gym too, it’s nice to see some familiar faces in there, especially when it’s busy. It’s great that right now you’re putting yourself out there, getting it the gym, coming along to efforts, I think just having those good habits can make such a difference. Well done Shana. I’ve sworn too much already today. Skipping will have made up for the missing exercises in case you were wondering.
