Cardiff 10k for the 2nd time yesterday 🏃‍♀️

Really enjoyed the course again & the support in Cardiff was as amazing as ever!

Happy with the time as I have some plantar heel pain that I’ve been managing for a few weeks so no speed work recently & some cross training to keep the fitness up. As ever this has been a joint effort between me & my coach & has been adapted on a weekly basis depending on my symptoms! This is the advantage of having a coach who you can talk to at any time ☺️

Strength training doesn’t slow you down if it is programmed correctly within your plan!

It can be beneficial in lots of ways:

It helps you to run more efficiently leading to improved running economy so you can run faster for longer without fatigue.

Increases your resilience to training load so your body is more prepared to handle the running you are asking it to do.

Helps to improve your single leg stability so every time your foot hits the floor your balance is there.

It can help you to produce force more quickly when accelerating, running hills & finishing a race.

Gives you another way to progress without adding more miles to your training plan!

Follow for simple running & strength advice for beginners 💪

Short & sweet workout for runners leg strength!

1. Goblet Squats - quad & glut strength for those hills & the end of your race.
2. Single Leg RDLs - stability & glut/hamstring strength.
3. Single Leg Calf Raises - approximately 8 x body weight through your calves when running, these need training!

3 sets of 8-12 reps of these twice a week is a great start 💪

You can switch out the kettle bell for a dumbbell or any other kind of weight - also doable body weight only if you are brand new to strength training.

Give it a try & let me know how you get on!

Not been to watch live sport for ages so treated us to tickets for the European Athletics in Birmingham on Saturday night ❤️

Great to see so many amazing athletes at the stadium & managed to catch the end of the Women’s Marathon before catching the train home on Sunday 👌

Reminder to self to do things like this more often!!

Programming, accountability & support can make strength training completely doable for runners.

If you can get yourself into a routine, you can make it fit nicely into your training routine without struggling with fatigue or injury.

Strength training helps to improve your running economy & reduces fatigue during the final miles of a training run or race & who doesn’t want that?!

Let me know your reasons for not doing strength training & I’ll see how I can help to get you started!

Cramp anyone?!

Why do I have a coach?

- To keep me accountable - I know what I should do but it’s easy to skip things or leave the sessions out that I don’t enjoy when left to my own devices!

- To spot if I’m overdoing it from my feedback about how the week has gone as well as looking at my paces & heart rate stats.

- To rein me in if I’ve been injured or ill & plan subsequent weeks around this when I could be tempted to push through, even though I should know better!

- To take any decision-making out of my hands. My strength sessions are loaded onto an app for me to follow & my runs are programmed so I can send them straight to my watch. I can just turn up & train.

- To have someone in my corner who believes in my & pushes me to improve (because I want to!)

- To continue learning from someone working in the same industry as me.

- DM COACH if you would like to know more about how my coaching could help you!

Got a spring marathon place?

DM “STRONG” & I will send a simple at home plan to get you started

Plyometrics for runners- why include them in your training?

- Better running economy - same speed for less effort.

- Springier tendons - your tendons get better at storing & releasing energy.

- Faster force production - helps your nervous system to fire quicker.

- Lowers your injury risk - your tissues adapt to the loads you train them with. Plyos prepare bone & tendons for impact.

- Improved proprioception & balance - hops, bounds & skips build control & coordination at the knee & ankle so your form holds up when you are fatigued.

DM PLYO for your free Introduction to Plyometrics plan.
