40 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
Swimming is a great alternative to running and probably the best form of cross training. Have fun!
I’ve moved a few things around, guessing as to what days might be best to get the sessions done this week. Obviously a lot depends on when Bannatynes are doing their classes. I’ve also got the 10 miler in the plan but know worries if you are not keen on that. Let me know and we can always shuffle stuff around to best suit your week. Merry Christmas Lou 🎄
Bad training week but couldn’t be helped. Feel so much better but not right. Still have achy lymph nodes in my neck and cold symptoms 🤧 and a raspy voice.. Gutted really as training was going well.
I’ll listen to my body this week but hope to get most of the training done if I can.
You were due a week off and you’ll never go through a year without some kind of setbacks. So don’t let it get you down from a training perspective. On my spreadsheet which has all the data I’ll colour co-ordinate the numbers so when we look back we know this week was down to things out of your control. Really hope you feel back to your best soon.

A really good way to get your S&C in. A full body workout with barbells will really aid your running and reduce the risk of injury.
The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.

“Rest days are key. Our body adapts and gets stronger when we rest & recovery. Have a good one!”
40 Mins Elliptical (RPE: 5-6)
A good way to boost cardio whilst reducing the risk of injury. The elliptical can tone muscles and improve endurance whilst being gentle on your joints.
