Rebecca Run’s: Princess Highway
It was back to work this week. So depressing after my week in Melbourne. Actually, I quite like my job most of the time and my boss is so cool and clever and beautiful and not that short (yes, she’s…
Rebecca Runs: 10 Things I Hate About Running
I went for zero runs this week. Zero. I considered running home from the Business Awards on Saturday night in my heels just so I could blog about one run at least. But then I remembered I’m not a 19…
Rebecca Runs: Crisis Averted
So I almost reached a crisis point on my journey this week. My passport arrived and the photo (which I trusted my husband to take) was next-level horrendous. I was almost confronted with the uncomfortable reality that I am chubby….
Rebecca Runs: Got The Runs
I haven’t actually [got the runs]. What I had was a vision of myself doing something as ridiculous as completing the Toi’s Challenge – an 18km course across town, bush, beach and farmland. Perhaps it was a forgotten dream even,…

This was my first run in 5 weeks. I seldom run off road so this was a good test to see how my right leg was after twanging a muscle while helping a friend lift a rotary hoe into a car boot 5 weeks ago.

So all was good. #run #runner #running #athlete former #triathlete #duathlete #keepinghealthy #keepingfit #fitover60 #oldandfit #maturerunner #womenrunners #consistency #consistencyisthekey #qwikkiwi #instagram #instarunner #runnersofinstagram #offroadrun - 1 week ago
Morning run on a cool, clear, West Coast wintery morning ❄️ snow on the alps leads to a crisp breeze. Thankful for my @icebreakernz top 🏃♂️ #coachray #QwikKiwi
Ironman Swim PB
I’ve taken my most popular training plan and given it a make over for 2020. I’ve taken the 12 Weeks to an Ironman Swim PB – Swim Faster with Smarter Training and I’ve modified to to expand the programme from 12 weeks and include an option for more than 3 swims per week.
Now the programme has created some great times for athletes competing at Ironman events around the world, but it was overly set in stone. Now if you have got between 8 & 24 weeks to an Ironman and are consistently swimming 3x, 4x or 5x per week, I’ve created an option for you. This is regardless of the length of pool 25m, 33⅓yd or 50m pool.
