Week Commencing: 1st June 26

Timely recovery week. Although we still have the 3 runs in there but I’ve ditched Body Combat and Spin. You could change that if you wanted but I thought you would prefer to stick with the running and strength work for now. The alternative would be swap efforts for BC and spin 🤔 That would give the legs extra rest in between the two races. In fact I prefer that option but will let you choose. Any issues just shout. Keep up the great work Lou

All done. Not a lot to say here. Feel like I need more variety in my work out now. It’s getting boring 🤣
Tell him (or her). He will offer some other exercises if you say that. There are plenty of alternatives out there.

Look it a little bit too fast but I was slower than when I last sdid this session at the beginning of May. I’m Guessing it’s just a bit of fatigue setting in. I am actually really struggling with my hayfever at the moment I don’t think that’s helping.
Always tough 2 days after a race, so I wouldn’t worry too much about comparing with last month. Just getting that HR up and speed in the legs will bring us the benefits we want. I’ve never really suffered with hay fever so can’t really relate but I have heard it’s horrible. Great work though Lou. You were unlucky in your position in the train game. Freya had that lovely wool jumper on, probably knitted by her nan no doubt. Imagine if you’d have ripped that 😂

Well Horntye was a mixed bag 🤦🏼‍♀️ one lady turned up and said she had never run more than 3 miles! And they wanted to walk up every hill 🤣 on the positive my heart rate was low 🤣 It’s stressful trying to lead and thinking about getting your run in!! So knew I was missing yoga so threw some strides in which Lindsey came and joined me in which was nice. She’s struggling with her speed at the mo.
Great work Lou. Not ideal when you have a runner like that rock up. Good idea to chuck some strides in there and nice to have Lindsey for company.

Did s&c Feeling a bit down at the mo because sashys legs are bad and I don’t think she’ll get better this time as she’s quite old! But she’s happy.
Well done Lou. I think whilst it’s going to be sad, remember how much love you’ve given her and how much better her life has been since she came to you and Simon. That’s special right?

140 Mins Run

Got some extra points for it taking longer. The elevation of that course was more than the Hastings half!!! And the ground conditions were tough. So to finish at 2.39 for longer than a half isn’t actually too shabby because we didn’t push hard up the hills 🤣 My legs are achy though. Might have to look at my Bewl pace 🤣
Great work Lou. I think the best way to look at that was “it was a nice day out”. Ideal easy long run? Perhaps not, but the fact you took your time, and tbh, time and pace is irrelevant here, if you’d sped round in 20 mins quicker I’d have been annoyed, so well done for keeping it easy. And great you were able to run with Lou. I think it’s a day we’ll look back at in years to come like “remember that time we all went for lunch at the Six Bells”, it doesn’t happen enough. Job done in terms of a lighter week.
