Another training week has come to an end. This week was meant to be a lighter one, so I could start again fresh on Monday. Overall, the week went well, without any serious issues or mistakes.
Weekly plan:
- 6 km easy run
- 4 km interval training
- 7.5 km long run
- two strength workouts
In the end, my interval run ended up being 1 km longer. I kept only two strength sessions this week because I didn’t have enough time to fully recover.
The long run also didn’t go exactly as planned: I picked a new route without checking its length, so I ended up running a bit more than 9 km instead of 7.5.
What went well:
- took a break from strength training to recover, started listening to my body more
- walked more on rest days and added a couple of yoga sessions
What could have been better:
- plan routes better to avoid running more than needed
- started pushing the pace a bit too much on easy and long runs
Next week will be busier. And sure it will show how well I managed to recover.
