A nice easy week with no efforts, just to give your legs a rest after Sunday’s HHM. I’ve kept the 2 x S&C in there and will continue to do that going forward. Keep up the great work Michelle and let me know if we need to tweak anything.

I appreciate this was a rest day but I had pre booked annual leave a long time ago in advance. When I saw there was a chance for a gentle recovery run plus the added bonus of the special session being put on to learn more and focus on running form I didn’t want to miss it. It was good to stretch my achy legs out. Yep they felt pretty empty but I expect that and kept it light 😊
Well done Michelle. I have tweaked the schedule to give you a rest day in there and shorten the long run. The idea of doing 6 days on the spin post HHM is madness and could easily lead to injury. Perhaps when doing S&C this week as well, just ease back a little. I’ve also put a slightly quicker run Saturday as I know if doing parkrun you might want to run a bit faster anyway. Hope this all looks ok? Any problems let me know.

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.

A good session. Although a little tired today and still lacking a bit of something now I have done the session I feel good. I kept in lighter today, less weights and reps but still felt like I worked pretty hard. Lots of resistance band exercises.
Great work Michelle and sensible to ease back a little today. Smart decisions like that can make all the difference. Knowing when to push hard and when to give yourself that little bit of leeway.

Keep that RPE down. You want to be able to run and chat, speaking of which, joining a group can add to the enjoyment here.

I couldn’t make it to the club run this evening, after work and paul getting home later but I wasn’t going to miss my session and so I jumped on the treadmill for the hour easy. Pace was spot on and HR stayed low. I actually think this was the perfect decision for me this evening as I’m still a little fatigued in the legs but still ok to run, just that couple of days post giving it my all 🤣 sort of tired ! Any way that’s another session completed and me feeling better that I still got the time and miles in my legs.
Pleased this went well. In hindsight I could have done without a really hilly Wednesday run as now struggling again myself 🤦‍♂️ Hopefully a few days rest will do the trick, but glad you feel ok post HHM.

Another of my 60 mins easy on the treadmill today due to the car in the garage and having some plumbers round the house. I actually think it’s been the best option for me running wise post half, I’ve still got time on my feet, got the miles in that was set but without over stress on my muscles without any hills 🤣. I managed another 6 miles easy pace with keeping my HR at about 125. I had a break for a couple of hours then hit the gym again for my S&C, really good session, aware and listening to my body to make sure I wasn’t o er doing it. Pleased to tick these off today. 30 mins run tomorrow and I’m done 😊. I just read your feedback from Wednesday, I hope your legs are ok, maybe a few hills Wednesday were a little to much 😊
Great work Michelle. Good to get most of the week done already so you can have a nice weekend. Again Wednesday was an example why Horntye can be problematic. I don’t want to step on any toes but I might look to introduce the 6pm Wednesday run, mainly flat, because of Jax, but also because I don’t want to be doing 150+ metres of elevation in my easy runs either. It just gives people that other option, and also some of my runners are still not Hastings Runners either.

A good opportunity to practice your half marathon goal pace during a midweek tempo run. Factor in hills and weather, which may effect pace, in which case nail the right RPE.

My week is complete 😊 3 runs and 2 gym sessions 💪🏻 I feel good about this especially after the half efforts last Sunday. Wasn’t sure how my body was going to respond but I’ve managed everything. A good park run but that dam wind on the way back 😩 But my 2 nd fastest PR Strava tells me 😊 I made sure I warmed up and cooled down too.
Quite a few of the team have found this week tough post HHM but once again you’ve delivered and finished with a cracking parkrun time. So happy, thank you for making me look good over the past 7 days 😁 A few extra bonus pts for the time.
