    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.
