Not really a recovery week in the end as I just kept adding stuff, but see how you feel, track might be a bit too much as a big session on Monday.
What a week! So much disruption with the weather messing things up with parkrun plus my mum in hospital Wednesday when I’d planned to go to the gym. Good job I got your efforts done as I nearly didn’t go!!
Not sure how I managed to rearrange and change things to get the points, I hope I did the right things to replace it Shame I only got to run once. Good I saw Richard and got his advice about the stair climber to help with making my legs stronger he also says he has no concerns regarding me being able to recover and is impressed with my determination and motivation. A lot of that is down to your support 😘 xxx
Superb. It shows there is always a way and I love the fact the pts system is rubbing off on your and keeping you motivated. To get up and go to the gym on your own makes me really proud and I know what a difference its going to make in the long run. All things considered and everything that was thrown your way it was an excellent week. Well done darling.
*Recoveries: 2 Mins Between All Reps
Big session this so start off at 10k pace and then look to hit 5k pace for the last 4 reps. Always focus on running tall and staying relaxed.
A great form of cross trainer for us runners. Take a few minutes to warm up at find your stride but then push hard. You can real bang for your buck with just 30 mins on the stair climber. I hit around level 10 when doing these but find the right speed for you that you can maintain, but you find this tough.
A good way to smash out some cardio in just 30 mins. You should find you get a good sweat on doing this session.
Recoveries: 30-60s. If time is limited then do 2 exercises together and remove the recoveries.
*Each side (double the reps). So 2 x 30 second Side Planks = 4 in total (2 on each side).
“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
