Reading: A day in the life of Paula Radcliffe - Marathon Runner

8.30am
Sometimes, my daughter Isla wakes me and my husband, Gary, up, or, more often,
we wake her up. After I get up, I always check my pulse. It's usually 38-40 beats per
minute. If it is too high, I rest for the day. It's so important to listen to my body. I have
a drink and a snack while giving Isla her breakfast.
9.30am
We take Isla to nursery and then I start my training. I run, and Gary rides his bike
next to me and gives me drinks. Four times a week, I have a cold bath or go for a
swim in a lake after training.
12.30pm
I pick up Isla from nursery and we go home and I eat a big lunch of cereal and fruit.
Then I have rice and salmon, or toast and peanut butter. I try to eat as soon as
possible after training. After lunch, I play with my daughter.
2pm
I have a nap in the afternoon, and Gary usually takes Isla out while I sleep. When I
wake up, I have a drink and a snack while Isla has milk. I eat a lot during the day,
especially bananas and dark chocolate.
5pm
I go running again. In total, I run about 145 miles every week. I write about all my
runs in my training journal. I record everything, including how I feel and what the
weather is like. I train hard every other day, go on an extra long run every four days
and rest every eighth day.
7pm
In the evening, I do my exercises. These keep me strong during long runs. Isla likes
to climb on me while I stretch. Gary gives Isla her tea and cooks mine while I finish
my exercises. Then I finish cooking dinner while Gary gives Isla her bath.
7.30pm
Gary and I eat our dinner. I have red meat four times a week with rice, pasta or
potatoes, and lots of vegetables. We also eat a lot of stir-fries, because they're quick
and healthy.
8pm
We put Isla to bed and relax. I check my emails and watch TV or chat with Gary. I
love police and hospital dramas!
10.30pm
Time for bed. As I brush my teeth, I stand on one leg and then the other. This keeps
my legs strong. I enjoy reading, but I haven’t read much since Isla was born.
