Another day and another run done ✅

Being the first week I’ve actually got my 2nd long run in properly, today was just about taking it easy.
Thankfully the call of a cake collection at the end, got me out the door!

The knees were still feeling a bit tender from yesterday so I went with a 200m walk / 800m run approach and didn’t hate it 🙌

Now to rest, party and get ready for next weeks adventures ✈️ @ London, United Kingdom

Did a long run, didn’t feel horrific!

So after last weeks horrible 24km I was determined to make this week better.
After some big improvements across the week (but still more to be made), today’s 27km felt so much better!
Yes it was still hard and yes I was still slow but boy did my body feel so much better.

The main goal for today was to stop less and reduce my elapsed time out, as well as the weekly zone 2 heart rate training.
I managed to take walking fuel breaks rather than fuel stops and other than a few traffic lights and a toilet stop - managed to keep moving the rest of the time 🏃🏼‍♀️Reducing my stopping time by over half compared to last weeks run 🙌

Also managed to sustain my HR Z2 much better in the latter half of the run than I have been able to other weeks!

All in all a success!

Lessons of ultra training...

Today’s run was rubbish!

In all honesty I don’t think I am yet to take this ultra marathon training seriously. I’ve been playing hot and cold with my training and lifestyle and today’s run was a lesson in why I now need to focus.
I have spent the last week eating rubbish, sleeping rubbish, drinking rubbish and not training....resulting in surprise, surprise a rubbish run!
Yes there are reasons why I needed to pull back a little over the week (my mental health comes first!) but this shouldn’t have meant throwing in the towel to all the things that actually make me feel better.

So here marks my turning point. I have 3 months until race day and I am getting my A into G!
I have wonderful friends to train with, a wonderful nutritionist who provides me with the right fuel to support my training and keep me happy (ice creams and orange juice for the win!) and I have a career that allows me the flexibility to slow down a bit and get the rest I need.

So here’s to the next 3 months of fueling better, resting better, training better and feeling better 🙌 @ London, United Kingdom

Hills, mud, blisters and attempted HR training...

Today was my first official training day out on the trails and boy was it a bit of a shock to the body!
I may be a confident road runner but when it comes to running hilly trails, I feel like a complete novice.
BUT...
With the help of I made it through and am excited for this journey ahead, and to see how I can improve over the next 3 months.

Month 1 of Ultra training complete ✅ ⠀
⠀
Yes, you heard correctly, another Ultra!⠀
In May this year I will be embarking on my first 100km race along the Jurassic Coast🏃🏼‍♀️😬 ⠀
⠀
I wanted to do a blog post / video to fill you all in on my year of training but hey-ho, life has just been happening! ⠀
⠀
Month 1 has been fairly chilled with the reintroduction of hill training and weekend runs increasing slowly.⠀
⠀
Looking ahead to month 2, things really start to get interesting with Saturday AND Sunday long runs in addition to a whole heap of strength, cycling, swimming and other anaerobic runs 😱 (note - cycling and swimming isn’t stock standard in Ultra training but with my later this year, a necessity to keep me on track 🤷‍♀️)⠀
⠀
So here’s to month 2 and hopefully some more posts from me to let you know how it’s going.⠀
⠀
If you have any questions about my training, nutrition or anything related, feel free to fire away!⠀

Things don’t always go to plan...⠀
⠀
Today was a big day for me, I was finally going to tackle a 10km.⠀
For those that know me and the distances I’ve run, this may seem like a small feat but for the last few months my mind and body have said no every time I’ve tried to run 10km or more...a dodgy knee at 9km, a twisted ankle at 9km, and a tired body at countless kms. It’s felt like hitting 10km was so far out of reach.⠀
⠀
So today was the day I was going to tackle it and what better way then at a community Santa Dash supporting - yes I got to run with thousands of others dressed as Santa 🎅🤶⠀
⠀
The anxiety this morning was rough and I almost didn’t make it out of bed. Yes here I am, an ultra runner and I’m scared of 10km! But I managed to drag myself out and got there. ⠀
⠀
The hills were tough (need to work on that!) but the first 7km felt fine and then it happened... just as I was reaching km 8, my knee went. Yip again.⠀
I stopped to the side to try and massage it a bit and wallow in self-pity. All I could think was - another run, another failure. ⠀
After a bit of time I started to walk my way to the finish because I now just wanted to cross that line. Initially I could barely weight-bear but thankfully after about 0.5km of walking my knee started to ease up and I managed to very gently walk jog my way to the finish line - 10km done ✅ ⠀
⠀
Now although things didn’t go according to plan physically (and I will be getting my body seen to ASAP) - today was a big mental breakthrough and if anything, I can be happy with that.
Every run isn’t going to be a great win but there are always small wins to take out of every run.

Face-to-face PT...⠀
⠀
All my face-to-face PT sessions are held from the PT studio .your.marks.studio based in Clapham Junction.⠀
⠀
So what exactly is a PT studio?⠀
⠀
A PT studio is a space specifically designed for PTs and their clients. This means it is not open to the public for memberships but instead only has a small number of PTs and their clients actively using it at any time.⠀
⠀
What to come along and check it out?⠀
Why not sign up for a free consultation with me and find out how myself and this space could work for you. ⠀

At home strength for runners...⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Exercise 2 & 3 out of 6...⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Upper body exercises. ⠀
See next post for videos 🎥 ⠀⠀
⠀
🔹Extended inchworm - a great exercise to work both your arms and your core! ⠀
From standing, bend forward to touch the ground, trying to keep legs as straight as possible (note - wider the feet, easier this part will be). Walk yourself out into a plank position. Once plank has been reached, keep walking the hands further forward. Go as far out as you can (while keeping the body braced) before returning all the way to standing. Repeat.⠀
⠀
🔹Prone cobra- strengthens your back and can help improve posture. ⠀
Lying face down on the ground, with hands by your side, thumbs facing in. Brace your body while lifting up you chest and arms, getting a good squeeze into the upper back - keeping your palms facing out can help tie into the squeeze a bit more. Hold for as long as possible. ⠀
If you need to, return to starting position and come back up.
