Wk 5 - 13/2/17 -19/2/17
Brathay training - this wk I ran mon, tues, Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun
Mon- Up at 6 out of the door at 7 to take dave to work then gym for my balancing, glutes, strengthening exercises, core stuff with Nicola before I started work. Today I ran with Barrow-in-Furness Striders It was tough but I completed the set for a change Lol. We did 1k, 90sec rec, 1k, 1 lap recovery & repeat. oh my poor body.
Tues- I got up early to run. Todays run was a run of remembrance. David would have been 28yrs old yesterday so I took him on my run with me. When I 1st set off I had a pain in my foot which was getting worse so I stopped, went back home, gave it a massage and 10 min later I was back out. I ran about 9 1/2 mile giving me plenty of time to remember our David and all the good things, the things that made us laugh. He still lives on in our hearts. I hope you enjoyed your run David I certainly did. It was a fantastic morning for it, nice and fresh and crisp, we even got to see the sun rise.
This evening at work I taught my regular spin class and it was hot in that room I felt like I was melting or was it the fact my ankle is healing so I put more effort in lol.
Wed - Non running day, got all my stretching, glute work and balancing done and I even managed to stand on the bosu ball and throw the medicine ball at the trampoline my balance is slowly improving.
Then I went for some deep tissue massage ouch ouch ouch !!! Still I'm booked in next wk for another sess aaargh.
Thurs - When I got up this morning I felt a bit battered and bruised :-( so I went back to bed and had a lie in till bout 9 lol rest. The rest of the morning I looked after my grandson Byron, till I went to work. I ran with Panthers tonight and although I felt a bit tight when I set off I soon eased off a bit and enjoyed the rest of the run. Followed by a spin class.
Fri -This morning I took the spin class and then this evening I ran with Duddon Dragons, I suggested we should run up moor road, a nice steep hill, where I'm sure if you put your arm out while going up it, you could probably touch the road in front of you. lol. I was only joking but before long after a warm-up round the village we were at the top everyone did fantastic. It was all downhill after that back to the carpark for a well earned stretch I even got them doing the squat stretch, Adam you would be so proud of me 🏃 :-)
Sat - Parkrun day, Half term so off I went to tackle the undulating course round barrow's beautiful park. I felt like I had a good run tried to just keep going at the same pace, finished with a sweat on and in 27:27 nowhere near my pb but defo a fab time for now.
Saturday night was quiz night at the Red river club and Mavis did a fantastic job of making it a great night. We raised £180. Thank you everyone who turned up and see you at the race night !!! Well done to everyone and the team who won the meal for 4 at the Stan Laurel, hope you enjoy :-) they do delicious food.mmmm
Sun - Long run day
Today I ran 18 mile with the help of my friends from Panthers, It rained for most of it but it was ok because it was warm and the rain kept me cool. I really enjoyed the company today, we had a really good laugh and played the Alphabet game which kept us entertained lol, I felt a few niggles now and again and it was strange how they started in 1 place then moved somewhere else and so on not actually staying in any 1 place for long, phew. Run completed, I walked home after stretching off and headed straight for the ice bath brrr, hot shower then to work where I managed to do extra stretching and foam rolling.
