Today I had my first call with Rachael to go over my first month's programme.
First reaction:
I am starting tomorrow with a rest day! Result ;-)
However, my first workout on Friday is starting with burpees.... Yeah, you heard it right. If you never heard about burpees, they aren't the thing you do after a meal.
They are evil. But supposedly one of the best exercise for runners, she says...

I only looked at the first few workouts so far. What I have noticed is a mean 4x 800m run timed towards the end of the month as my interval run, and 2x 2mile run for my tempo run.
That's more than a 6k in only a few weeks time. Gulp...
I have also noticed quite a few timed workouts, which is not something I am used to do. So that will be interesting.
Oh well, will just have to suck it up and do it, I suppose.
I will have to accelerate my shoulder recovery. Maybe doing the physio's exercises might help ;-) that's my task for tomorrow then, doing them properly. LOL
Nutrition call booked for Tuesday. Looks like I better eat some nice stuff over the next few days. Although I know that Rachael likes her food, and she also likes a treat here and there, so hopefully that will be fine.
Have weighed and measured myself today, to get a starting point. Will get someone to take a before picture in the next few days.
All will be tracked along the way, and will let you all know how it goes. For those that work with me, they will know I weight and measure every 4 weeks, so that's what I'll do for myself as well.
Bit of respite till Friday. Will write after first workout, might not be able to write the next day though if my muscles will ache. Time will tell.
