In this episode, Cara shares her first injury woes with us – which gets us talking about lower-body strength training exercises as well as rest, recovery and when to see a physio. She’s also got some very exciting dog-related news for us: but how will she manage training around a big life change? We’ve got lots of advice for her. If you're following our plan, the runs are detailed above.
