Friday Fartlek Run: Steady Plus 35min

Race pace for events longer than half marathon distance for most athletes aren’t run at threshold pace but instead a touch lower with large portions of the event done at Level III. It’s important to expose the body to training at this level of intensity. This is a great workout for someone training for a half to a full marathon (whether part of an Ironman or 70.3).

Steph Barker’s Amazing Run

I started with Coach Ray and Qwik Kiwi Coaching in late November 2023 with the aim of trying a different style of training to what I’d been doing in the past. I’d been following a programme from a book for my ultra events and wanted something fresh. I’ve enjoyed the variety of sessions that I’ve been completing since joining Coach Ray.

Chef Ray: Dry-Spiced Chicken and Figs

This meal was hearty, perfect for a cold winter’s day, but still provides quality protein and when combined with rice or pasta, some quality carbohydrates too.

Monday’s with Jessica [Ep 54] – Volleyball Nationals

This week was slightly differently set out to my usual, instead of my normal school routine I had a week away in Palmy competing with my school for the volleyball nationals. I’ve been playing volleyball since I was in year 9, so this was my 5th year playing but due to COVID and other sports overlapping I haven’t been able to make the past 2 senior nationals.

Sunday Smart-Trainer Session: Martin Gibala Intervals XIII

Doing repeated short bouts of exercise at very high intensity develops a number of physiological systems in the body. Predominantly it provides a great training stimulus for the neuromuscular system. Although not specific to endurance events, training the neuromuscular system can bring on your fitness very quickly and is still a massive benefit for endurance athletes especially early in the season or if you are unfit. This workout can be done by beginners or experienced cyclists alike because a max sprint is all about your level of effort and is likely to be different from another rider.
