6 Weeks. Zero Setbacks. The Sessions That Built My Comeback.

After weeks of being stuck with a glute/hamstring injury, 13th April was the day everything changed. One pain‑free run… and the comeback began. Over the next six weeks, I rebuilt my fitness through the key sessions that shaped my return — from early speed reintroduction to full threshold work, long runs, and proper 5K‑specific training. No shortcuts. No setbacks. Just consistent work. In this video, I break down every major turning point in the journey: • 13 April — First pain‑free run • 29 April — First speed reintroduction (8×30s on/off) • 5 May — 12×1 minute on/off • 7 May — 7 miles + 10×30s on/off • Beverley 10K comeback race • 12 May — 15×1 minute (45s recovery) • 14 May — 3×8 minutes at threshold • 17 May — 14‑mile easy • 19 May — 5×5 minutes at threshold • 21 May — 15×300m/100m faster • 24 May — 15‑mile long run • 26 May — 6×3 minutes + 8×250m • 28 May — 10×200m + 10×100m • 31 May — 15‑mile long run These weren’t just workouts — they were markers of progress, each one showing me I was moving forward again. If you’re rebuilding from injury, or you’re in the middle of your own comeback, I hope this gives you something real to hold onto.
