I'm definitely guilty of overtraining. I'm still learning to make sure my easy runs are indeed easy. But, I often get too excited, especially if I'm feeling good, and before I know it, I'm actually running a tempo run, and not an easy run. And because of that, I find myself weak and sore and overtrained. It's hard to leave the ego at the house.

I definitely agree with you Darren. It's so hard to back off when runs are going so well and when they are so fun. True about the ego. Thanks for that.

Totally agree Darren. As an experienced runner, i have tried this approach in the past, but like you say, you set off on a long run, you feel strong, and before you know it, you have done a long tempo run. Then i read an article in Runners World bny a guy called Pete Magill, a runner who broke 15 minutes for the 5K, at the age of 47, and 31:11 for the 10K at over 50 years of age. I read his book, Fast 5k, and ever since all my easy runs have been easy, and i have felt so much better and stronger.

Personal experience - People who take up running when they are young (teenagers or younger) almost always train too hard. Usually not too much, but too hard. Many young people will push to the point of throwing up in every session. When I was 15 I'd treat every long run like a tempo run and of course this led to repeated injuries. People who take up running when they're older often have the complete opposite problem. They hate effort and will do every run at an extremely low level of effort, never moving out of their comfort zone and therefore never really improving. There's nothing wrong with this of course, but many of these people are found on websites such as Reddit and Strava spreading false advice to new runners looking to improve.

@runningchannel3 жыл бұрын
Self assessment of over training can be through disturbed sleep, reduction in performance, constant fatigue and increased heart rate variability. Your Achilles can benefit from calf raises post run and maintaining this strength consistently after your runs is really beneficial to your overall health. Along with the calf muscles you can increase the strength and stiffness of the actual achilles with some heavy weight training. - Manni

Hey, these types of injury point towards dramatic changes in your training. I would be really cautious about the amount you’re running and when you return to running.

So some calf raises are a great solution along with strengthening your hip muscles. - Manni

For beginners or anyone worried about overtraining, I recommend MAF training. It’s almost impossible to hurt yourself using this conditioning method. The very gist of it is walk/run at your MAF HR of 180-your age. Always train in this aerobic zone and eventually your HR will stay low, but your pace will get faster. Plus when you first start you will be going so slow it’s practically impossible to hurt yourself.

Really sorry to hear about your pain. The achilles is a structure that requires stiffness to ensure good energy return. Manni our Physiotherapist would actually disagree with this as we understand from the research tendon stiffness improves protein turnover and collagen production. So without going into too much detail you need to strengthen your calf and this will in turn stiffen your tendon, improving your pain and the energy return overall function.

Doctors laugh when I bring it up. I do see your point about taking it easy. That's not hard to do when you can't even run a 5 min pace per km any more. So weird.

I'm dealing with Achilles tendonopathy right now. During quarantine shutdown I had the brilliant idea of running a half marathon every two days (since I was no longer having to do my work commute) and now I'm totally borked. Miserable :( I can barely do a 5k once or twice a week before crippling myself. Any advice on recovery or how long it should take or ... I dunno ... not being miserable while half crippled would be great.

I had achilles tendonitis late last year - overtraining too... I was being stubborn and doing a couple of 5ks a week and it was just making it worse. I then was forced to spend 10 weeks in bed due to pneumonia (argh!) and the 'rest' cured the tendonitis. Now I can't run yet for my weak lungs but at least the achilles are sorted 🤦😖. Seriously though, take time off from walking and running for a while, do cycling or swimming instead. Let your body heal.

@@jennifermurray3630 thanks for the reply - I can't cycle or swim, but I did quit running for a couple of months (no choice!). I'm still getting in some long walks, though, maybe 20 to 30k a few times a week. It's not helping, though, as you say. I don't live in an area that supports swimming or cycling, sadly. I am doing a lot of HIIT and weight lifting, but I miss running emotionally! Nothing makes me feel as (for lack of a better word) undepressed.

I’m able to help remotely if you would like. We can set up a call to find out more. Evidence shows that strengthening your calf muscles progressively is beneficial to stiffen the tendon, reduce pain and increase energy return. Recovery depends on the treatment and how you progress through a plan. - Manni

@@runningchannel Hi Manni - that's kind of you, but I think calling between you and me (I'm in Australia) would be exorbitant. I used to be morbidly obese, so I already have massive fat-guy muscular calves. I'm just trying to limit my running time until some of the swelling goes down a bit. Slowly healing, but it's sooooo slow...

Sounds like it. Sustaining a higher effort regardless of weight isn't the best. Slow down - most miles you do should feel easy, don't think about what used to feel easy, it's about the now. Now you feel pain near your knee, get it checked out by a doctor and strengthen it according to doc advice would help you recover quicker.

Hey, sorry to hear about your pain. You will need to slightly adjust your training if your body has changed during lockdown. So maybe try training for time. So go out for a minimum amount of time and build up your repetitions of this period during the week, for example. Run 15-20mins twice a week over 4 weeks and build this to 3 times a week for 4 weeks. If you put on weight over 5 months you will have to use a similar amount of time to lose this weight. Don’t expect a really quick change, make the process sustainable and this will prevent injury. -Manni
