100-5

Into the final week before my BIGGY on Saturday.

NUTRITION
I the past I have struggled with 'GI-issues' and in my 1st 100 miler I basically vomited for the final 30 miles...

I don't think you can ever 'master' your gut as it is ever changing but you can improve your odds. Over the course of this block or training I have upped my general food intake, really focussed on protein for recovery/muscle building and importantly experimented with mid-run nutrition!

Over the last 4 months I have consumed (amongst other things), during runs,: pizza, chips, pork pie, donuts, hot dogs, salted potatoes, millions of Freddo's, Dr Pepper , Marks and Spencer garage espresso, whisky (yes Whisky, thanks ), , Precision Nutrition gels, etc, etc,

Looking forward to having access to my van on the course for a smorgasbord of delights and then the Sherwood Pines Cafe scran post-race!

So less than a week to go until my 100 miler! Spending the day on my Mountain Bike at Dalby Forest with my son and some friends.

CROSS-TRAINING
Throughout this block I have made time for 1-2 (indoor) rides per week on my turbo trainer. This is good, low impact cross training and lets me watch Netflix in the garage! I also just feel better for doing something else with my legs. On top of that I have been a real convert to the Asana Rebel app- for once keeping on top of my mobility. This has felt like a really good addition.

TAPER
After all those hard weeks the Taper period is where the body can recover fully and absorb all the good work from the training block. I’ve had a longer taper than normal whereby I started reducing things 3 weeks out and have done 70% of peak volume and then 45% of peak volume.

I have though increased the speed and intensity a little which feels really good. A little less plod and a little bit more wind in my hair.

My strength training petered out 6 weeks ago but I have continued with the cycling and yoga.

100-7
So in just over a week I’ll be setting off on my 100 mile run to raise money for Campaign Against Living Miserably

I’m now in the midst of my taper which I am actually loving this time around.

TRAINING
Since the turn of the year my volume has gone up and up and has hovered around the 70 mile/wk mark for a while now. I’ve done back-to-back marathons, 6 hour lapped race, a lovely and super-hilly 50k and a bunch of double days and 20KG rucking. As I take my foot off the gas I can recover from this and all-being-well be in peak shape for the 18th.

It's and this week I want to introduce you to Neat & Tidy Decoration
Rob has done a couple of painting jobs for us in clinic and I can't recommend highly enough. As the name suggests he is very 'neat and tidy' and indeed Liane called him a 'gentleman painter' as he is so polite! Get in touch with him for a quote!

Our lovely ‘Neighbour Town’, Sherburn, is hoping to improve indoor sports provision. If you live in or around then take a few mins to fill in this survey.

🏀 Help shape the future of indoor sports in Sherburn in Elmet!

Our town has grown, but we’re still the only place of our size in North Yorkshire without a modern indoor sports facility.

We want your input to show the real community need and make sure any future facilities match how YOU want to use them.

Take the survey and have your say
