I feel you about the sleep. I have been struggling a bit to get my morning runs, but getting there. I will start soon a new marathon training and need to ramp up the volume and especially the weekend long run. I will start to get 1h30-2h time on feet and not worry too much about the distance, yet. Hopefully as the weather turns cooler it will make things easier. Hang in there. Cheers!
Honestly there is something a little bit freeing when you go out for a long run and are not focused on pace or distance and just getting time on feet. I’ve even thought about that more for early morning easy runs. Just getting out for an hour, keeping it easy and pay no attention to the distance. Nice way to start the day
@@WhatMatterstoMatt totally agree about going easy. Here in HK the summer heat still on and when trying to got a bit faster is demanding. Adding some speed is a good feeling no doubt but have to be done wisely. My short runs are around 30-40min and the feeling of joy after it, is the best.
Meal planning. Make sure I have food ready for a few meals either Sunday or Monday. Including groceries. But also sleep. Try to get to bed early. But during those peak busy weeks I get up early to get the miles in!
Meal planning is a big one. If I can get up in the morning each day and just grab and go without having to debate over food, it’s so much easier and I find I am usually making better choices with what I’m eating
We try to sqeeze in the training were we can 💪 i have some time at work to run/gym and only 1 son that is 4 years old and soon a new born anyday now 😅 it’s great to see that your family can join you aswell.
That is awesome. Hopefully I’ll see you in Moncton. Not sure about fredericton fall classic. Still trying to work through some work schedules to try and make it.
