  • January 5th - 11th

Just a solid start to the plan. A good track session Tuesday morning if you can make that, and then some easy miles to slowly build the endurance. That’s going to be a big part of this plan, slowing adding to your aerobic base so you can further and for longer. Any issues let me know but keep up the great work Michelle.

A good week ๐Ÿ˜Š completed everything on plan and feeling accomplished. Gym session was a real positive for me this week. I felt I gave a lot in our efforts session and todayโ€™s (Sunday) long run was a nice way to finish the week off.
I am already looking forwards to what appears a little lighter week, this week coming ๐Ÿ˜Š
Pleased I discussed and asked advice RE paddock wood, other wise I could have messed up a bit there. So thank you very much for that.
Looking forwards to Sunday lunch now and putting my feet up for the afternoon ๐Ÿ˜Š

Well done Michelle. So we did sneak above that 110% mark this week with the R&R. But I know that was easy so I won’t end your 100% club streak. Perhaps just don’t tell anyone else as I have punished a few for over training and it’s something I do try and encourage the team not to do. It was a shame as you could have actually got away with ditching that over 30 min treadmill run which was a bit of a grind. Anyhow, we move on, another strong week ticked off, with loads of positives to take. Glad you asked about PW, over racing is a mistake lots of runners do and sometimes we do need to miss out on a race to best fit our plans. Keep up the great work.

Nice day off training to rest after Sunday long run ๐Ÿ˜Š
Rest days are training days too as that’s when the body recovers, adapts and gets stronger.

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.

Great session I felt – enjoyed that ! Tired towards the end but think thatโ€™s because I was really trying and pushing ๐Ÿ˜Š kind of glad track was cancelled this morning ๐Ÿ™ˆ A good start to the week. Unsure but I think I was pretty much hitting my target times looking on Strava. Definitely up there for effort.
Excellent work Michelle. It was a tough one to coach as I had to be wary of being on the bike down there but there were a few occasions I could clearly see the effort you were putting in. GPS will always play silly buggers down there so not one to focus too much on pace. But I agree, felt like a strong session and everyone really works hard. You guys are a pleasure to coach on Tuesday ๐Ÿ˜ I always come back in such a positive mood and even more motivated to push myself harder.

Yes I made it work and got it done. On the treadmill but I still got it done. Covered 3.1 miles / 5k at easy pace and happy that although I didnโ€™t get to the 1 hour club run, it was going to be difficult this evening but also in the dark round the streets I canโ€™t lie I was nervous at the thought of slipping over still and really felt it wasnโ€™t work the risk. At least tomorrow in daylight for the hour I can see where Iโ€™m going and how safe it is.
Good decision to switch it up and finding an alternative whilst others make excuses. So well done Michelle.

60 mins easy along the seafront this morning with lou while she was smashing out her tempo session ๐Ÿ˜Š although we had different sessions today it was still nice to have someone there, to run with, she went a head every 3 mins for her session.i kept it to my easy pace. Legs a little tired but being a relaxed run it was fine. Good session and another one ticked off for the week ๐Ÿ˜Š
I did panic initially when I saw she did the session and you had an easy run, but thanks to sticking to the plan. Hopefully the next few weeks you two can team up to do your sessions together. Well done Michelle

So slightly more challenging and time consuming. To save time you can superset some exercises. What does that mean? Well rather than having 60 seconds recovery after your Kettlebell Swings, use that 60 seconds to do the Farmers Walk. And then go back to the Kettlebell Swings again. So you’d alternative 2 exercises and once, then have a short break before doing the same again. It saves as much as 15 mins that you’d otherwise just be standing around. Any issues let me know.

Got up and got it done โœ…๐Ÿ˜Š. Had company from Polly showing me how to squat properly ๐Ÿ˜† bless her from her kick boxing sessions. Very positive session.
You laugh but you’re inspiring her to live a healthy future which is priceless. Really well done for getting this one ticked off Michelle

Nice SLR with HR group, kept it really nice pace, challenging route with some hills but just slowed it down. Now this was meant to be 2hrs as usual but it went on longer to get back, we had a few runners who were newish I think and we were asked to obviously keep looping back which we did but it went over the 2hrs. I didnโ€™t mind, equally not much I could do as it was a planned run / route ๐Ÿ˜Š had a nice catch up with lots of the runners which was nice.
Well done Michelle. Sensible to slow it down on the hills. Love the fact you were smart and made that adjustment. Nothing you can do about the extra. I think perhaps the route was a little too long, but it’s hard as a run leader to know who’s going to turn up. That’s why the out and backs do work better sometimes with mixed ability groups. Some extra pts though which is never a bad thing. Although I did notice the R&R as well, which I think took us to 5 runs for the week ๐Ÿ™„ Just be careful, I made that mistake and haven’t run more than once per week for nearly 3 months now, because I made one mistake and did an extra run I shouldn’t have. That’s all it takes sometimes.
