What a morning!!!
Saturday 2nd August 2025
33:10!!!!
Banstead parkrun isn't quite 5k so I ran abit after getting my token
5k 34:05!!!
Just fantastic
Tracey had said I bet you can go faster so I thought let's see. We started slightly further up as the girls had Milo dog. I felt strong and just thought, do it Lizzie, run faster run stronger keep going and see what happens
A huge PB happened!!
Groin was sore, left glute sore
What we realised was we actually warmed up before the run which obviously made a huge difference- will def so that again!
When I got back to mums, my training plan said a post parkrun run
So out I went
Not such a focused warm up
Great run but crikey - groin sore, both glutes so sore but especially the left one - and all over the glute plus hamstrings.
Was not impressed
Obviously needed to have warmed up but also realised that although 100% heading in the right direction I am def not 100% recovered.
I've cycled 70k
I've run (walked) 21k
I swim 2.8km ish when I do Oaklands morning tri club swim
So I'm certainly heading in the right direction but still along way to go to be able to complete a full Ironman.
3.8k swim, 180k bike, 42k run.
Needless to say I'm so glad I've got coach Emma to make sure I get to the Outlaw sensibly and Lizzy to help my body recover with her sports massages and Max from Jonathan Clarke physiotherapy who's pinpointing which of my pelvis muscles are still in need of treatment.
I'm feeling very protected.
One year to go
