Its true, the past year getting back from hamstring injury has been tough and I didn’t workout from early march ‘25- September. And then had another setback in early November and just restarted workouts on January 9th (3x5 minutes at around 645 pace). Since then I’ve just done threshold and sub threshold work and haven’t introduced anything faster or super shoes and averaged 6:05 pace for 2 mile reps.
Here’s what I’ve worked on:
- biggest thing for me is not rushing adding miles and just ending workouts with more in tank
- pelvis/ core stability
- plyos pre adding speed/vo2 max
-lots of ankle/toe mobility
- my recovery!!!! Nutrition/ sleep being the biggest things!
- letting my body feel safe and not adding more if I felt like I was barely tolerating
I know this isn’t entirely nutrition but I’m honestly surprising myself that I’ve kept my mileage the same and haven’t done speed workout yet and by just having consistency I’m getting a lot closer to my usual self 💕
