I had devised a Jeffing Half Marathon Plan for myself and my teen. For me the aim was to get sub 2 hours, and the teen was to complete his first one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jeffing Training Plan out of The Window<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you may have noticed our <a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/2021\/06\/12\/jeffing-half-marathon-training-plan-for-sub-2-hours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sub 2 hour jeffing training plan<\/a> has well and truly gone out of the window! There\u2019s absolutely no chance now but I am hoping that I can still get to a point where I am able to get the teen jeffing around his first half marathon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019d like to say that I didn\u2019t run at all this week because I was trying to rest. There may be an element of truth in that, but honestly there was so much to do to help the eldest move house that I most likely didn\u2019t have the time or energy. Saturday was actually the day he moved which was the reason for missing <a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/parkrun-tourism-reviews-by-a-jeffer\/\">Parkrun<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/moving-and-boxes.jpg?resize=768%2C1024\" alt=\"woman sat in a car with lots of boxes behind her for moving house\" class=\"wp-image-28900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/moving-and-boxes.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/moving-and-boxes.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/moving-and-boxes.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Training we Did do<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Monday saw me manage to walk four miles in order to meet a friend who is moving away. It was two there and two back. Both teens came with me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tuesday I was again helping our eldest, but the older teen also needed to have his brace off. This meant we ended up doing a bit of walking to go for breakfast at McDonalds afterwards. Friday we also had to go back for his retainers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pain in my hip\/side was so bad though that I resorted to putting loads of tubs of ice into a cold bath. <a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/2021\/01\/26\/cold-water-therapy-you-need-to-know-its-secrets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cold water therapy<\/a> was the only thing I could think that had been different and maybe it could help heal me. However, the air temperature was too warm and the lowest I could get it was 22 degrees!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"554\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?resize=800%2C554\" alt=\"bath with blocks of ice for cold water therapy\" class=\"wp-image-28902\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?resize=300%2C208&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?resize=768%2C532&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Wednesday I walked with the younger teen to his swimming lesson and back. This is probably only about another mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Older Teen&#8217;s Training<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You will know from <a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/2021\/09\/03\/the-ninth-week-of-jeffing-half-marathon-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">week 9 of our training<\/a> that the older teen had just had a birthday, where he actually became an adult too! To say I am gutted that my injury has put a stop to his running is putting it mildly, but he&#8217;s at an age when I just have to let him do his own thing. He was doing so well with training with me too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Week 10 also saw him having his first covid-19 vaccination though, so of course I wasn\u2019t expecting him to do too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/2021\/09\/14\/the-eleventh-week-of-jeffing-half-marathon-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Week 11<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Still with an injury trying to rest but keep things heading in the right direction for jeffing a half marathon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28902,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4699,4777,4014,4561],"tags":[863,4528,1764],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=800%2C554&ssl=1","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=800%2C554&ssl=1",800,554,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?resize=150%2C150&ssl=1",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=300%2C208&ssl=1",300,208,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=768%2C532&ssl=1",768,532,true],"large":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=800%2C554&ssl=1",800,554,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=800%2C554&ssl=1",800,554,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/ice-bath.jpg?fit=800%2C554&ssl=1",800,554,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"pinkoddy","author_link":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/author\/pinkoddy\/"},"uagb_comment_info":1,"uagb_excerpt":"Still with an injury trying to rest but keep things heading in the right direction for jeffing a half marathon","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pepM9j-7vu","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28860"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28860"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28860\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28939,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28860\/revisions\/28939"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28902"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28860"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28860"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28860"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
