I assume this must be a triathlon coach? Because running only once in a week sounds rather minimal even for a recovery week, but presumably you're doing other stuff.

Oh! Yes! Sorry, I've got about 6-7 workouts a week plus yoga crap. Running is usually 2 of the workouts & this week it's just the one.

I've warned her that I am terrible at multi-workout days and I was so untrained when we started last month that there was really no need to do multiple workouts, but I am interested to see if she ends up going that route in the lead up to June. One of the reasons I got coach was that I couldn't find a half Ironman training plan that didn't have me working out twice a day 3-4 times a week and I'm just really terrible at sustaining that, both from a motivational perspective as well as a physical.

Lol, yoga crap.

I'm too lazy to do core exercises, but after a friend was telling me about it, I got it into my head to try and do the yoga planking (not the planking meme). I'm maybe trying to get up to five minutes - am at 2.5 mins on straight arms, 2 mins on forearms (which I find harder).
