How Often To Run | Structuring A Week Of Running Training

Thank you for posting this. I have not run for 8 years, just bought a Garmin and Nikes and need a training plan. Perfect timing!

That's good advice for runners- but isn't the big challenge for triathletes to combine the running with biking and swimming?
E.g. I am not able to do a long run and a long bike ride during a weekend. It is either one or the other.

There’s some research that shows significant benefit to running the same volume with 2 sessions a day. Any thoughts?

Thank you this is good structure. I try to run everyday but it's basically all easy run to build the aerobic base except for a speed workout on Wednesday and a goal pace repeat on Friday

Older trail runner...nice video-very well put together!

Good advice! Thank you! :)

I usually run 11k one day, next they the same course (positive slope 200m)but in a gravel bike to recover, the next day a hundred burpees or calisthenics.
I just repeat this cycle, pretty basic or maybe wrong idk

If I’m base building to peak in a 5k in November? Is it too early to start incorporating speed work? I’m already dining strides. I’m thinking Tempo runs would be fine, but I’m not sure about quicker shorter reps?

Cross training ???? As in cycling and swimming? Is this the GRN or the GTN?

Hey guys! Any tips for running with masks? As for myself, I live in a highly populated area, so running without one is a no no (otherwise I might get some bad looks). It makes running way harder and it is kinda taking away the pleasure of running :/

How.often strength training​ shold We​ do.in.a week? I​ prefer long run.on Saturday because I​ still.have​ a rest Day​ on​Sunday with​ family.

Do you have a review video for the On shoes? Considering buying ones but not sure....(need some convincing haha)

By constraining are we talking about cycling and swimming or like more CrossFit style circuits?

Whenever my legs allow!

Love this concept of a "recovery", Run.

It could help to summarize with some examples presented into tables. Easy to remember

I’m just getting back into running so I’m building my base back up. I run on M,W,F & try to get to two miles but I’m not there yet. My goal is to consistently run 5k in sub 24min. I strength train on Tues & Thurs & take Sat/Sun off for rest/recovery.

The thumbnail for this video was a chart for a week of running. But once you click on the link you discover that there are no charts. That's disappointing, if not bait-and-switch, because a chart for a typical week is surely the easiest way to grasp a proposed schedule and think about what modifications one might want to make. Certainly a chart is easier to grasp and think about adjusting than a long stream of words from a "talking head" with random videos of people running. Let me rephrase this more positively as a request: Show us some weekly charts and, pointing to the charts, discuss how the different schedules support different goals and/or runners at different levels. Thanks.

Videos like these requires some graphic points on screen when you talk about important points.. like they pop up at right thyme when you explain

My runs 60 k per week .. one long , one hill , one road ; one track & one slow road .. must accompanied with yoga session 😉

Excellent

Hi...I am 55 and I do 5 day strength training and started doing 10km running & walking (70 mnts) for 3 days and cycling 2 days ....is it advisable to do Strength training in morning and do running/walking/cycling in eve..(I take complete rest on Wednesday and Sunday no strength training...Pls help

Running six days a week makes me wonder where the swimming and cycling go.

Amazing video! With the fall coming soon, could you make video how to run in rainy day? I just tried this and the humidity IS a factor that I underestimated 😟

On which days should I cross train?

I have just started running with Couch to 5K. Run Monday, Wednesday and Friday and then couch (which I have mastered) at the weekend!

tuesday, looking at thursday for short run on trackday friday resting monday lkncfoerhjxbdewjhfbdkerhjejwh

Just show the schedule

great plan, starting Tuesday... I just use to long run for 1 hour 3 times per week and do calisthenics on days in between... just going to do the running and lose some weight... then incorporate weight training into this, and bulk back

You are beautiful ,, thanks for the tips tho

This is roughly what I'm doing at the moment

Monday: Long run
Tuesday: Easy run (with strides at the end)
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Speed/interval run
Friday: Recovery run
Saturday: Tempo/threshold run
Sunday: Rest

Currently around 50km per week but looking to push that up to 60km!

Thanks very much for that. I’m and oldie and a newbie and that helped me a lot.

My routine!
Monday: 6 am I do a 3.4km run (2.1 miles)
Tuesday: 6 am I do a 3.4km run (2.1 miles)
Wednesday: 6 am I do a 3.4km run (2.1 miles)
Thursday: 6 am I do a 3.4km run (2.1 miles)
Friday: 6 am I do a 3.4km run (2.1 miles) 6pm I do training (~5km)
Saturday: Recover
Sunday: 9 am I do my 2km race (1.24 miles)

Total running for whole week: ~12 miles (~19km)

I was skeptic about Agoge Diet because I thought that I would have to eat only broccoli to lose weight. I am eating only food I like and still losing weight.

My ankles are freaking killing me i ran like 5 days in a row 😭

What is enough for an easy run?

Which Canary Islands is it? hahaha

Doing this currently:

Day Distance in K Tempo k/h
Mon 10/15 5.15 pace
Tue 6.5 70/80% zone
Wed rest
Thu 5 4.30 pace
Fri 6.5 70/80% zone
Sat 8 5.15 pace
Sun rest

Thanks for indonesia subtitle sir

The link in description is more than the excuse I have for not to run

What is a tempo run

Brilliant,really enjoyed this one 👌

I usually start with 10 mile runs three days in a row and then get injured and don’t run for another year.

Plz help me with a schedule I wanna run on weekends coz I have school

This video isn't really helpful. It's a lot of theoretical talking, but it doesn't have the desired clarity and structure to give a straight answer.

Great

I run 2 days A week and 3 days per-month

I feel like all my runs are recovery runs but I work everyday so I have to do everything every day or I just don't feel right

Very experienced runners I need ya opinion pls, just started focusing on endurance cardio recently, I have been working out for long and have quite decent stamina since I previously used to do some running, 2 runs a day, 5km each total 10km a day, each run 30min (1 hour a day) 7x a week, I can recover in time so is this optimal?

How often do you run?
