And just like that the Road to Torun training plan is complete. The past 4 weeks have focused heavily on adding the speed element to the seemingly endless winter strength and speed endurance sessions.
I can’t lie, its been a physically demanding month, as the training has been focused on very high quality (mostly short and fast) sessions with some special endurance thrown in to keep the speed endurance topped up. The body has survived the intense sessions, albeit at times it felt I was dancing on a fine line between tipping over the edge.
So thats it, I feel ready for my first ever world championships and my first time running for GB&I. The body feels great, the diet and weight is in the right place, and I honestly don’t think I could have trained any better.
Who knows what will happen in Torun, but one thing is for sure, like every other athlete I will be giving it 110%.
Some may notice that there’s no part thirteen, thats deliberate … i’m not superstitious but it does no harm not to take chances anyway 🙂
