Torbay half-marathon
Well done to our members Jon, Mark, Becky, Claire, Claire, Anthony, Paul, Tony, George, Lorriane, Kelly and Tom. You all ran the half-marathon today and did great! The weather was cloudy/sunny with a breeze so conditions overall were not bad. So very proud of you all. And well done to my friend Katja who came in under 2 hours. Katja came all the way from Lonon for a visit and to run, so well done and good luck in the Helsinki marathon in 8 weeks time. Now to any of my clients reading this, now is the time for us to start training for the Torbay 10 km in August. I should be dieting by then, so will be using this event for a cardio session (if Simon will let me) and therefore I can run with you all.
My client Steve is doing very well with his training, he is now training 5 x week, 3 cardio sessions, 2 resistance and cardio with myself and a long walk and occasionally the gym at the weekends. He is losing weight and starting to change body shape for his first time up Mt Kilimanjaro in September.
Becky’s’ training started last week for her first marathon in New York in November. I have set her up with a resistance training programme for the gym and she is taking herself out for runs either outside or on the treadmill. We have set her diet up as the last thing we want is for her to lose weight, so have adjusted her calories and I can now start to monitor her. Our sessions this week have mainly been on starting to get her core strength up. So we have done a lot of work on the bosu ball.
