Running fuel!
This awesome trio of podcasts from @pogophysio The Physical Performance Show has accompanied me on my last 3 runs and features 3 of my all-time favorite triathletes @lsanderstri @terenzo1 @crowiealexander What an inspiration, each and every one of them in their own unique way. These athletes show that there are many approaches to being world champions and world-beaters, but the humility and fierce just-get-it-done determination are traits they all share. I’d highly recommend these 3 episodes to get some real insights into what it takes to perform and be successful in triathlon, from the physical aspect to mindset, recovery, nutrition and nailing the details on race day. Brilliant! .

Post-run recovery!
As well as doing a fair bit of stretching for my ITB lately, the other part of my recovery process is foam rolling and ice therapy, both before and after training sessions. .
Foam rolling is useful to keep range of motion and release points of tension in the muscle and fascia, so my ITB and TFL have copped a fair bit of this lately! I’m rolling before I run, and then again afterwards.
After training I also apply an ice pack directly to the painful ITB insertion point near my knee for local reduction of inflammation, leaving it sit for about 20mins. I’ll do that for 1-2 rounds. .
.
Consistency is key, like anything, so if you have injuries you’re trying to manage/fix, then try to build this into your pre- and post-training routine each day for the best results. .

I had the absolute pleasure of catching up with Head Coach @emma_quinn_88 of T:Zero Multisport earlier this week to talk all things #recovery for #triathlon - it was a blast! It’s awesome having the opportunity to work with coaches who have such a vested interest in their athletes well-being as well as performance, looking for long-term successes rather than short-term gains. If you want to learn more about the science of recovery and the why, what, how and when then check out our full chat I n the blog link above! ☝🏻 .
I’d love to know what you think and please leave any questions or comments below!👇🏻

Stretching!
I’ve been rehabilitating my ITB syndrome for the past weeks in order to get back to running at full capacity. At the moment I’m building up my running distance slowly aiming for pain-free runs, about 6-7km at the moment. As part of my rehab plan, I’ve been doing a stretch routine for my ITB at least twice per day, morning and evening, as well as before any exercise sessions to loosen it up. The ITB can be a tricky one to stretch, so if you’ve been feeling a bit tight in that area too, try these 3 stretches. (And yes, the 3rd one is a little hard to do!)
.
Hold each stretch for 20-30 seconds, and repeat 3-4 times.
Do this before and after training sessions, aiming for 2-3x per day. .

It was smiles all round for today’s run!
I had a great morning kicking off with a few meetings talking all things marketing and sports science with very inspiring people, followed by a run through the park 🏃🏻♀️and now an afternoon of planning! 👩🏻💻 I’m excited for what’s coming up - so keep your eyes peeled for the latest developments!

How good are lunchtime runs?! Especially when they’re out in nature! I think my face reflects the happiness and positive energy I felt out there today 🌈 Or maybe that’s just because I’m actually running again?! 🏃🏻♀️But seriously, doing exercise is the best way to regain energy when you’re feeling tired, though it seems like a catch 22, but moving our body and getting our blood flowing to our muscles and brain re-energizes us and renews our focus. It was exactly what I needed to get my afternoon on track! .
