Podcast: Episode 128 – Take some of the structure out of your training, but get the same results

OperationMove · June 11, 2020 · Leave a Comment

If you are like anyone I am coaching, you have been wanting to change up your training in this period without races

Maybe you have a whole heap of extra stressors on you right now, maybe you want to fall in love with running again, maybe you want to step outside the 12 week cycle and do something different, or maybe you just want to take the pressure off.

Whatever it is, there’s been a much bigger need for less rigidity in training the last few months, and probably for the rest of the year too.  

But it probably also makes you feel a bit nervous right? Like if you take your foot off the gas pedal, are you going to go backwards? You don’t want to feel like the time is ‘wasted’ either, so where does that leave you?  

In this episode of the podcast, I’m talking about how to take some of the structure out of your sessions, but still get the same physical adaptations, just with a whole lot less of the mental load.   Sounds fun, right? I thought so too! I have a few ideas to keep you moving, switch to more of an effort based focus and create ways where the intensity isn’t always coming from the session itself.

Podcast: Episode 127 – The Year of Mini Goals

OperationMove · June 4, 2020 · Leave a Comment

This week I have company!

Kirsten is back and we are catching up on all things post-home schooling apocalypse, the virtual run across Tennessee, 10km training and:

  • Creating adventures for yourself in the absence of races
  • Fun things to work on that you wouldn’t normally be able to do in a training cycle
  • Mini goals ranging from elevation, to segments, to time trials to distance
  • And the usual kind of shenanigans we get into.

Podcast: Episode 126 – Why We Run

OperationMove · May 15, 2020 · Leave a Comment

When you strip back all the trappings this is what you are left with . . .

When there aren’t any races . . . When there aren’t any group runs . . . When there is nothing immediate to train for . . . And when your stress levels mean that you probably aren’t really improving that much (at least according to my watch, Janet) . . . You get to find out why you run. Really. This episode is about that. And about not judging yourself for your coping mechanisms.

Podcast: Episode 124 – Running local? Here’s how to adapt your training.

OperationMove · April 16, 2020 · Leave a Comment

 

 

If you are in lockdown, this episode is for you!

 

  It is probably different depending on what state you are in, but in NSW while we are still allowed to get outside for exercise (yay!) we do have to stay within our own suburb or postcode. So while it’s fine to drive to somewhere in your suburb to start your run if there’s a park or trail you like, that’s not okay if it’s outside of your suburb. I usually split my runs between home and the flatter runs down the hill one or two suburbs away. But for the last few weeks, I’ve been sticking to just being at home. Which does have a few training challenges. So this week, I’m talking all about the changes you can make to your sessions when you are limited as to terrain – whether you are living somewhere that is all hills (me!), or can’t get access to hills or are missing out on your usual trail running.

Podcast: Episode 123 – I’ve lost fitness, speed and endurance. How do i trust the process in my comeback?

OperationMove · April 10, 2020 · Leave a Comment

 

I got this listener question awhile ago, and it seemed very appropriate this week

 

Who hasn’t lost a bit of fitness at this point? And even though it is probably way down on your list of overall priorities right now, eventually you are going to start building that back up. And what does that look like? Mentally and emotionally how do you deal with that feeling of starting over (not completely, but further back than you were before)? How do you cope with knowing the gap between where you think you should be and where you actually are? And what does that process look like?
