Week Commencing: 4 May 26

Something a bit different for parkrun. A nice little challenge and a good test of pacing. Tuesday is one of the most popular sessions among the group so that should be fun. A really good week and would be your highest pts total for a while if all goes well. Keep up the excellent work Lou

This was fun and felt great . All very achievable. Thank you
So pleased to hear that. I think finding that balance between working hard and enjoyment is important. Always great to have you along Lou. So nice to be in the park at this time of year.

I didn’t run my best today. Wasn’t feeling it tonight – bit exhausted. Ended up doing minimal running.. But there’s always next time….
Good way of looking at it. Some days we just need to be kind to ourselves and go again when the opportunity next arises.

Tricky one to pace. First time I’ve had this in plan so I need to work on it a bit but I’ll get there!
It’s not easy to get this right but it’s good practice for pacing and should work well with parkrun where naturally it’s a bit slower these days in that first km. Perhaps a little quick at first looking at the splits, but a decent time at the end of it. So lots of positives to take. Well done Lou

Completed. According to Strava I ran really well and completed a fastest 10k this year but it didn’t feel fast. It was a real effort at times. But still totally manageable! I’ve got a bit of heel niggle in right foot at moment which I suspect could be plantar fasciitis and that’s annoying as I try really hard to not be injured. I don’t think I run excessively compared to others. I’ll make sure I stretch my calf muscles well.
Really well done Lou. That’s great work. Hopefully the pain in the foot will pass. Some calf raises could help. Perhaps just doing them when cleaning your teeth in the morning and at night. Something like that. So you’re not actually having to do anymore time in training. Rolling your foot on a ball can help too with that sort of pain. Just keep an eye on it for now and hopefully it will pass.
