We ease back the next 2 weeks. Taper time. But still some good sessions in there, next week will be the much lighter one, as will the week in the build up to the Marathon. So don’t worry if this still looks quite tough. Any problems let me know though. Keep going Rebecca. So close now.

15pts | Rebecca S&C

15 POINTS

*Need to do the reps on both legs (double the amount)
**2 sets of dumbbells, one in each hand.

You can superset two exercises together. I’ve tried to set it up like that. So you would do 15 reps of deadlifts, straight into 10 reps of Tricep Dips, and then repeat 3 times. Helps save on recoveries and can make the session shorter. It’s not essential, but an option.

Hope you did something fun as you have a rare Tuesday evening off! After the HHM, left hip flexor was angry and legs felt a bit tired yesterday afternoon but now feels back to normal… just getting old! That S&C was tough and took longer than usual.. but I did have Indiana Jones keeping me entertained! Another one down, another one closer! Looking to join the Horntye run group tomorrow – it’ll be the first Wednesday in my plan!
Great work Rebecca. What a great thing to have on in the background as well. I was working on my blog and driving Jax round town on some chores at around 7pm, so not sure I made full use of my time off 🤦‍♂️😂 Glad you feel ok post HHM. Not sure on your travel plans for Brighton. I ask because I just teamed 2 people up doing the main marathon. So you have yourself Emily and Victoria all doing the trail version so if you did want to possible car share just let me know and I can put you in touch. Obviously just depends what your plans are.

Good to be back with the group – joined Sue Palmers group and was probably one of the stronger runners but suited me. Legs felt tired afterwards.
It’s good for confidence sometimes to be comfortable in the group. Last two Horntye runs I’ve dropped down and ran with Neil’s group rather than the top group which as suited me well. Excellent work Rebecca.

Done but no-where the HM times (was running into the wind) so not sure if it was the wind or fatigue from Sunday…. Onwards and upwards!
That’s ok, windy conditions will always make a huge difference. If the extra effort is there that’s what matters the most and it can be hard to push ourselves so soon after such a big event

36pts | 120 Mins Run

36 POINTS

Long runs are key. Fuel and hydrate well & join a group if you can.

36 Points
After the SLR was cancelled I headed off towards East Hill along barley lane. A bit hilly but nothing much… I had very little in the tank for most of that run. Fuelled and hydrated normally. Maybe just still tired from last week… looking forward to the taper!
Sometimes running tired is good as it’s how you’re going to feel in parts of the trail marathon. Plus it’s the end of a long tough block, so perfect time for the easier taper. Great work Rebecca. Super happy you’ve reached this stage in some excellent shape.
