Current Training

Just over a week until the Newcastle Stampede and I feel in pretty good shape. It was my Birthday a couple of weeks ago (all the 3′s!) and I let my hair down. This month has been similar to previous months and I’ve included boxing, kettlebell workouts and running. With my running, I need different terrains and loads of hills. I’ve also mixed in some sprints. Last week I had a full week out of the gym and only did my local parkrun yesterday. I did Durham and I woke up thinking I’m going for it. I always run and train as to how I feel and it’s been a while since I really pushed myself. I shaved nine seconds off my PB, meaning my new one is now 22:50. I’m supposed to be back in the gym tomorrow but I’ve slightly pulled something in my neck. It’s a recurring injury so I’ll be fine for Tuesdays session. +
