Hey everyone! Back to reality and some intense training sessions after a really great race in Chamonix and some rest afterwards.
In this vlog I talk about:
1:53 - How I felt and how I recovered after MCC
4:01 - My upcoming races
9:55 - My training regime and specific sessions
15:17 - 10k trail race in Westonbirt
For clarification this is what a typical week looks like for me (the days may switch but the key sessions remain the same):
Monday - Rest
Tuesday - Upper body gym session or boxing
Wednesday - Speed work (one of the aforementioned sessions)
Thursday - Recovery run
Friday - Rest
Saturday - Long run
Sunday - Long run part 2 or rest

Can you do a video on how to take pictures of oneself running where one doesn't look like a dying turtle because actually that is a skill
Hahahaha take about 100 and there's bound to be 1 thats ok 😩😂
Knoydart is stunning! It also has the UK's only (mainland) pub that you cannot reach by road - The Old Forge in Inverie. You either hike across many miles of hills, or get a boat from Mallaig. It's a good pub :)
Omg congrats! How could I "accidentaly" won a race? Give me tips😆 You're always making me so excited about running and stuff like this!😇 Love the energy!
Haha thank you!! Happy running 🤗🤗🤗
Thats mad. I was going to comment on the 184 heartrate and then you win the race, camera in hand and just off your pb. Great run and looking forward to the Highlands.
Haha it was a surprise to me too! Thank you :)
hey Flora, I'm so excited to see how all of your upcoming races go and how much fun you'll have, wishing you all the best! My upcoming races are a couple in New Zealand, the Kepler Challenge (60km, 2000m elevation) and Tarawera Ultramarathon (102km)- I was wondering what are your three dream international races to travel to (if covid wasn't a barrier for travel/entry etc)?
Flora to say you are busy is an understatement! Go team Flora! U accidentally won the race!! Athlete!
Can u do updated what you eat in a day
I'm not really doing those anymore, but it's a lot of food!
Wow that’s amazing just casually turn up at a 10k race & come first woman 👩 cool & a prize, 👍🌲👊🏼🥳🍀👍🏼
"So, I accidentally came in first (in the women's division)".
LOL. So modest. I'd be like, holy sh!t, I got 1st place!!! Lol. Congrats Flora!!
Hahah it was all a bit surreal tbh! But thank you! 🥰
Ever get shin splints or arch pains immediately right after running a fast 5k? And if you did, what did you do to expedite recovery?
I like the “attitude change” thats a good way of thinking about sessions.. I’m going to frame it like that now myself.
Aerobic training and altitude, the recipe to go faster ! Congrats 👌
Aha I think you might be right!
You only went and bloody won it! 😂😂🏃♂️👍🏻 Well done.
Haha thank you!!
Love your video, it’s smashing, wanted to tell you. (Flora)
Had kidney stones inside myself (it had been hurting me when I ran) stopped running for months, had it taken out (kidney stones) just under a month ago.
Started up training which has been going ok, first 10km race a week tomorrow, looking forward to it.
Ooooh good luck!! Well done you
5k 12 year old in 18:2#... I am starting to feel really old and slow, and I'm not old :'D Best get some more training on the cards :p
That 10k looked like a lovely area to be running in :) Also, pizza 100% great the night before an event and/or post-event :D
Haha same! Yes it was beaut and the pizza was delish! 😍
Congrats on the win! Sounds like you’ve got a pretty packed schedule coming up, look forward to following along
Thanks! Yes it's sort of mad 🥵
10k coarse looked brilliant and what a great run 👍
It was beaut, really enjoyed!
Woo Hoo! well done what a great result! 3 min hill surley Troopers Hill will do the job.😄
I went for a hilly short run on Monday eve and ran up Niblets Hill (next to Troopers) and became the local legend after my first attempt.Clearly no one else is mental enough to run up it.
Enjoyed that vlog 😃
Haha oh yes that's true! Most other Bristol hills are roads 😅
I can’t wait to tackle my first Ultra next year! Inspirational stuff, I’ll be revisiting this video for sure 😊 Thank you
Ah amazing! Good luck 🥰
Haha! Won by accident😂
Congratultion on the win, what a great day for you!
I was hoping your secret, Long and technical Race would be the #Rennsteiglauf here in the wonderful Thuringian forest in Germany! Maybe you will attend that next spring 😉
Aha sounds lovely! I do want to explore more with races for sure 🤗
Congrats on your accidental first!! I admit when you put your list of upcoming races on the screen, I immediately paused the video to look up races in my area. I've got 2 before winter, might as well as a third! 😆 I really dislike road running as well, and switched to almost exclusively trail last year. I can't wait to see your upcoming training and races. Thanks for all the motivation and positivity you bring! Your pup is getting big!
Hahah amazing! Hope you enjoy your races :) and yes Tia is a big gal now!
Good luck for Knoydart Flora! I'll give you a wave on the way past Fort William.
Thank you! Ahhh I'm so excited to visit 🤗
Hey Flora :), sounds like a really exciting and challenging schedule but definitely making the most of any sunshine and warmth before the winter :). Those speed workouts sound intense 😬 and congratulations on your 10 km!! Very impressive! Really looking forward to the weekend and getting as prepared as I can for the lakes too :). Hope you have a great week
Thanks Jack, see you then! 🏃🏼♀️
Love Westonbirt as a place to run and race! Always really well organised and such a beautiful place to go around. The race I did there finished up the hill rather than on the skywalk, which was a bit brutal XD
It's gorgeous isn't it? Aha I HATE finishing up a hill, although you really can give it your all!
Congrats! That looked like a very nice and varied race course :) I always found that my heart rate in races is a little bit higher than normal due to race nerves and the adrenalin, so I wouldn't be too worried :D Going easy during a race, never easy!
Thank you! Yes definitely - and I was chatting to the camera on the way round which doesn't help 😅
Great stuff! I guess MCC increases speed. :)
Haha I guess so!
So inspiring!
Well done girlie xx
what shoescare you wearing for london and what ones do you do ultras in?
Not really sure yet! Probably Hoka carbon x for London and my columbia caldorados for the ultras 😊
Congrats on the win. Gosh and you weren't even really racing it. It's only happened to me a few times in my racing career, so how exciting! As far as your IT-band and posterior tibilias tendonitis. Check what sort of surfaces you are running on. If they are banked roads it could be contributing to the problem. There are some good exercises you can do as well with a Theraband for PTT. Ultimately I had to go to physical therapy to treat mine, but it is a painful and tough injury. Also do some icing with it, as that seemed to help. Love your videos and best wishes.
Thanks Eddie! Yes cambered roads definitely exacerbate it but not much I can do here really! And I do ice after long runs which really helps. And I do physio when I can :)
