๐ŸŽ‰ Big shoutout to Shannon!

She just ran her first ever 10K in 1:11:59 โ€” and only started training with me 4 months ago ๐Ÿ™Œ

From zero racing experience to finishing strong, consistent, and smiling at the finish line โ€” thatโ€™s what smart training can do ๐Ÿ’ช

Iโ€™ve got 3 coaching spots opening in September โ€” if youโ€™re ready to train with purpose, keep an eye out ๐Ÿ‘€

๐Ÿ† Getting faster at 40! ๐Ÿ‘ Hereโ€™s proof that you can still run PBs well in to your 40s.

ran 18:11 in the 5km last night moving from 3rd to 1st in the last km and winning by 10 seconds! That was a 35 second improvement from last year and he has only been coached for 4 months!

Huge congratulations and if anyone is looking for coaching I am currently at capacity but will have spaces opening up in September so message if you want to be on a waiting list.

๐Ÿ… Congratulations to our athletes who raced this weekend!

๐ŸŒŸ Susan finished 4th at the tough IMRA Benbulben race โ€“ great effort!

A great event and more IMRA races coming up in the northwest for anyone training for the warriors run.

Congrats to on a great result. First year back for the Streets of Sligo and it was a great run from 3 athletes:

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ clocked a personal best of 17:50 in the Sligo 5km

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ finished just outside her best with 25:16.

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ also achieved a fantastic 2-minute PB with a time of 27:50.

Well done to all! Your hard work is paying off. ๐Ÿ’ช

๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธโœจ Week 4 of our FREE Training Plan: Toughest Session Yet! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

If you have missed any weeks just go back to week 1 and start again. Congratulations to everyone who has made it this far! If youโ€™ve progressed to running for 15 minutes continuously, thatโ€™s a HUGE achievement, from not running at all to hitting that milestone in just four weeks is amazing progress! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ‘

This weekโ€™s workout is all about sharpening your speed for 5K and 10K races. Hereโ€™s what weโ€™re tackling:

๐Ÿ”ฅ Workout Breakdown:
1. 200m Repeats: Push hard at your 5K pace, followed by a short period of easy running.
2. Threshold Run: Shift gears to a longer effort at around your half marathon pace.
3. Finish Strong: Another set of 200m repeats to really challenge yourself!

This session is designed to help your body accumulate lactate and improve its efficiency in clearing lactate byproducts like hydrogen ions, which can cause muscle fatigue and cramping. The more efficient you become at this, the faster and stronger youโ€™ll run! ๐Ÿš€

I hope youโ€™ve enjoyed this training block! I suggest you to sign up for a race in the next week or two to see how much youโ€™ve improved! ๐Ÿ…

๐ŸŒŸ Week 3 of Our Free Running Plan! ๐ŸŒŸ

This week, weโ€™re introducing tempo runs! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ Tempo runs are fantastic for improving your bodyโ€™s ability to clear lactate and boost your aerobic threshold. They help you build endurance and run more efficiently!

For our beginners, itโ€™s time to increase the duration of your runs! Remember, itโ€™s perfectly okay to take it slowโ€”listen to your body and donโ€™t hesitate to take a breather if you feel any pain or discomfort. If that happens, consider revisiting Week 2 to ensure youโ€™re building a strong foundation.

Iโ€™d love to hear how everyone is progressing on their running journey! If youโ€™re following along, please like, share, and save this post. ๐Ÿ’ชโœจ
