2 Overview Most common injuries Injury prevention strategies - massage - posture advice - walking poles - stretching - strengthening - taping / bracing Hills Training Cross Training Training Tips Recovery Paddy Pallin Preparation Nights

3 Most Common Injuries Sprains / Strains - Ankle lateral ligaments - Knee medial collateral ligament - Low Back pain Overuse - Achilles tendinosis - Plantar Fasciitis - Patello-femoral pain (Anterior Knee Pain) - ITB friction syndrome - Gluteal tendinopathy - Trochanteric Bursitis

4 INJURY PREVENTION STRATEGIES Massage - Self Foam Roller, Pocket Physio, tennis/golf ball, trigger balls - Remedial Massage or Sports Massage Posture - keep back and pelvis straight - light pack weight, use pelvic straps - don t over stride on flat sections or up hills

5 INJURY PREVENTION STRATEGIES Walking Poles are they beneficial? - supports weight and relieves stress on ankles, knees, hips and lower back by approx 20-30%. - provide extra stability on uneven ground or when crossing streams. - helps to engage core and postural muscles.

6 INJURY PREVENTION STRATEGIES Stretching Static / Dynamic When? after gentle warm-up before and after training What? Long / Short Calf, Quads, Hamstrings, Gluteals, Hip Flexors, Posterior Chain How much? 3 x sec holds

7 INJURY PREVENTION STRATEGIES Strengthening - Squats - Lunges - Step up / down - Stairs - Clams - Calf Raises High Repetitions to train muscle endurance for down hills and steps

8 INJURY PREVENTION STRATEGIES Taping - ankle - knee Brace - compression - stability - tracking Depends on injury history

9 HILLS TRAINING Include once a week in the first four weeks. Increase to specific hill-repeat training once or twice per week in the next eight weeks. Hill-repeats are the most important especially downhill. Note: Be careful when running downhill because of the increased risk of injury.

10 Cross-Training Helps to prevent injuries or to maintain fitness during injuries. Makes training more interesting. Consider substituting a walking or running session for a paddling, cycling, swimming, boxing or gym activity. Train for about the same length of time you would have walked/run that day.

11 Training Tips Train on the course whenever possible or on uneven and hilly terrain! Keep a training diary to record the distances and sections of the trail covered - provides estimates for your support crew. 10% rule don t increase your total weekly distance covered or the distance of your long walk by more than 10%, as this can increase your chances of injury.

12 Training Tips Don t try anything new for the event!! Don't wear new runners or try a new fancy drink. Take a break - work out the best strategy for your team: - what to eat / drink - how long to rest for - what gear changes you ll need - need to re-warm-up Only go as fast as your slowest team member Find a rhythm - apply the pattern that you practiced in training.

13 Training Tips Time on your feet - training is not about speed or distance, but rather time on your feet. The most important part of training is the repeat long walk, where you do backto-back walks on successive days. Interval training - If time is a problem, a shorter, faster session is a great alternative. More intense interval training will improve your endurance because it boosts muscle strength and stamina

14 Training Tips Make it fun - provides entertainment and encouragement. Arrange your training walks to finish at a beach or local cafe, then invite your support crew to join you. Taper - reduce the amount of training on the two weekends prior to the event, especially the long walk. Reduce the intensity to a comfortable level. You should now be fit and well rested.

15 Recovery Most neglected part of training & competition Poor recovery fatigue & performance Recovery options - Sleeping / Relaxation - Nutrition / Hydration - Massage - Stretching - Ice Baths / Hot-Cold Contrast Therapy - Compression Garments e.g.. Skins - Active Recovery / Rest Days
