Roll on Sunday, really hope we get the chance to catch up and you get to meet some of the others. It feels like a busy schedule before so I’d be happy if you wanted to ditch something to leave you fresher for Sunday. See how the weeks unfolds, but you don’t want to toe the start line feeling exhausted.

S&C as per plan, no run as this will be the one I drop minus the strides. If I don’t it would mean I’ll be running 6 straight days as I would rather go to track Tuesday as more beneficial also my IT band is still sore.
Thanks for picking up on that. I think the addition of Saturday park run changed it, sorry should have removed this myself to be fair after I saw that. But glad you are being sensible and getting that rest especially if the IT band is sore. You are definitely ahead of the game in terms of training volume right now. So some rest is probably a good thing.

No run unfortunately, leg still sore possibly being over cautious but looking at the bigger picture.
Sensible with the race Sunday. I think there has been a case of pushing the training a bit too much lately so perhaps this is a sign we need to be careful. Especially now we are coming into the race season. You’ve got loads of pts in the bank so I quite like this little bit of rest in truth. Hopefully the leg will feel better in a day or two.

WEDNESDAY

S&C as per plan + 6.5mi on the treadmill with a few 1k reps to test the leg.
Glad you were able to get some miles in. Hopefully all will be good come Sunday.

60 Mins Run

70mins, started off easy then picked up the pace and my leg still isn’t right. Hopefully tomorrow it feels ok again 😩
Rest might be the best option for now. Every injury is different I’ve had experiences in the past where I could get down the stairs one day and the next I was smashing out a 10 mile PB. So hopefully all will be good for Sunday.

Half Marathon

66 POINTS

Arrived late a mad rush to square everything away so no WU. Started near the back ish and ran solo knowing a finish time of 1:30 would be beneficial and not put to much strain on the body given the injury. Ran 1:29:57 and I think I’ve not made it any worse but we will see what tomorrow brings! Sorry we didn’t get chance to meet but as you know it was crazy busy!
It’s my only bug bear with PW is the crowded start area. Sorry we missed each other but just glad the leg held up well. Was an incredible day for the team with most of my runners surpassing my expectations, which is great news again for the plans, obviously helped by perfect conditions. Hope the leg feels ok today, i think we just need to be a bit careful now as you’re fitness is where it needs to be aerobically so we just need to avoid any niggles which might effect the marathon prep
