One week to go before the big run, so I treated this lot to a hill technique session!
.
Warm up: lots of high knee drills and glute activation work.
.
Main session: 12k of uphill and downhill concentrating on strong arms, triple extension and looking ahead as we went up, and a slight forward lean and well engaged core and pelvic floor as we went down!
.
This was a tough session, but it’s a beautiful route I don’t think they hated me too much for making them do it..!

First run in nearly two weeks after my Covid vaccine, and it probably shouldn’t have been hill reps…🤦🏻‍♀️ Absolutely chuffed that I’ve been able to have it, but I didn’t expect to feel so shite!
.
These two runs are three weeks apart, and it’s clear how much my fitness has been impacted with just a couple of weeks off. The run today was much slower, but felt way tougher and my heart rate really shows that.
.
Easy run tomorrow, steady run on Friday, and hopefully a long run at the weekend!

Todays’s circuits was one of those sessions which prompted a very heartfelt “f**k you Covid”
.
Utterly filthy weather, no option to go indoors, limited shelter, an abandoned session plan… but one thing I can do very well is wing it, and this awesome group always turn up and work hard! (And throw endless abuse at me!😂)
.
I’m also extremely good at being irritatingly cheerful and upbeat in the face of horizontal rain. A life lesson inflicted upon me by a childhood of camping holidays and forced marches up Lakeland fells!
.
And it turns out that group single arm waiters walks look slightly ridiculous!

Skipping, or emulating Morecambe and Wise..? 😂

Skipping, or emulating Morecambe and Wise..? 😂
.
We’re doing lots of off road, hilly runs in preparation for our upcoming Cotswold Way run, so our warm ups need some bounce!
.
Skipping is a really good pre-run exercise: it’s plyometric, requires coordination, incorporates a high knee and arm drive drill all in one, helps warm up hips, glutes and core, and always gets runners laughing and giggling (because you will look ridiculous!)!
.
I always start with some light jogging, upper body dynamic mobility, high knee drills, a low skip, then finally moving into a much bigger skip really exaggerating knee and arm movement. This will bring heart rates up nicely too, and should be your final warm up phase just before setting off on the run.
.
If runners struggle with coordination (tik tokking is the usual issue) I find asking them to stop moving their arms altogether, then moving them again without over thinking, works. Sometimes you need to take the brain out of the equation!
.
I absolutely guarantee someone will start doing the ‘Bring me Sunshine’ dance…🤦🏻‍♀️

No, this was not taken today! Come the hell on weather, my new plants have all been killed by frost and I’m under a blanket trying to keep warm! I want to sit in the sun again with my ridiculous vizsla pretending to be a lap dog!

14 miles. Another incredible day. Gorgeous!
.
It’s my annual staged Cotswold Way run in four weeks, so we’re building the mileage in preparation. I’m being sensible and doing the 20 mile option, but these three are on for the full marathon! 💪🏻💪🏻

The water was a little brisk, but double hat, earplugs and thermal gloves and boots make all the difference.

Birthday celebrations with @amy101simmo last night left me a little ‘delicate’ this morning, but 18k with @nazwhite has pretty much kicked the hang to the kerb!

Best way to start a week off work? With a 16 and a half mile run that’s how! Fuelled by jam sandwiches (much better than gels!), and including a fair bit of lifting thanks to the frequent lack of dog access on public footpaths...😡! Thank goodness she has a harness with a carrying handle!
