So I got a good sleep score last night, but garmin says my hrv is low, in fact it has been grumpy about my hrv for a month now…. Last night - sleep score 80 - 9hrs 🙌 Hrv 56 😏 baseline is 79-112 Generally my hrv is getting lower, and my resting hr trending higher - my sleep score is always all over the place due to work/training times. Usually when my average HR is trending up, it’s when I’m not getting “enough” asleep, but my HRV doesn’t generally complain too much - the days when I have less sleep, it’s low but then when I get enough, it pulls it back up again. How much attention do we pay to those measurements when given from a watch?

Sooooo, I’ve streamlined my weight sessions….. Inverted row Bench Single arm row Diamond press ups (absolutely hate these and most are still on my knees) OR lunges (I refuse to do lunges on my long run day so I alternate between press-ups & lunges depending on what else I have on) 6 sets in the above order. It’s the only way I have time to get it done, it’s that or I get up even earlier & I’m really not keen on that! How much does it matter that I’m jumping from one to the other - they are at least all (bar lunges) upper body…… I’m unlikely to change back to doing all of one before moving on at the moment due to needing sleep lol, and I’ve just upped my bench weight, so it does work (just may not be optimal 🤔), I’m just intrigued to know if it’s a shit idea or not…

Hay Team, If you have any questions at all about health and fitness, maybe even a general question. Please leave them here and we will answer them as soon as possible.

Right, next 1/2 is in less than 4 weeks, 3 weekends = 3 long runs - do I concentrate on distance or elevation? Blackdowns had 1700ft elevation, Quantocks as 1000 more at 2700 ish ft - obviously I had a plan…..it involved running that elevation & hitting 13.1+ miles during august but naughty foot stopped that - now I have limited time & I don’t know what’s best to do - try to hit elevation and worry less about the distance, do the reverse & concentrate on hitting miles or try to make sure all 3 long runs are hilly & 1/2 marathon distance - problem is, I know that i will be shattered if I tick all the boxes, ot will be a shock to the body as not built up - it might do more harm than good 😕 - there’s just not enough time now to train properly - @Sunny Durman what do you think? Unless I try hilly shorter runs during the week (8 ish miles) and moderately hilly long run on the weekend 🤷‍♀️ Started to suffer from the cold as drugs wore off towards the end but I survived
