Running a 5K is no joke! Whether you’re preparing for your first distance running event, or gearing up to achieve and maintain your FASTEST race pace ever…here are our 3 favorite 5K Training Tips! Get even MORE out of your 5K Training with our FREE Video Training Series.. http://https://therunexperience.com/free-training/5k. 5K Training Tip #1: Get Those Miles In! You cannot achieve success on race day without simply logging the miles in preparation! Even though the race will be a distance of 3.1 miles, many of your training runs should fall somewhere between 3 and 5 miles.. Being able to maintain good form for a longer distance will make your efficiency and stamina for the shorter race distance that much better.. Here’s a couple tricks you can use to reset your posture mid-run: * Every 5-10 minutes: Shake out your arms and legs. After a few moments, reset those shoulders and that arm swing and continue on! * Every 5-10 minutes: Stop and do 8-10 squats. After completing, reset the hips and settle into your newly re-energized stride! * You can alternate between these two movements until the run is over.. 5K Training Tip #2: Practice Running Fast! The 5K race is often used as a vehicle for improving speed at other distances. For someone running a 10K or Half Marathon down the road, perhaps the most valuable of our 5K training tips is to work regularly on improving your speed! And remember, your speed is only as good as your ability to maintain it during the race.. Here’s a workout you can incorporate once a week: * Find a “runnable” hill (5-8% gradient). It should not be so steep that you have to hike to get up it.. * Run up the hill with a hard effort (it should feel similar to a sprint) for 45-60 seconds.. * Recover by walking or jogging down the hill before repeating.. * Repeat for 5 rounds.. * The goal is to be able to complete up to 10 rounds after a couple months of training.. And here are a few additional 5K Training Tips to use to make those hill sprints less painful: * Keep your eyes up! Don’t focus on the ground.. * Keep your hips driving forward as you run INTO the hill! * Make a conscious effort to maintain your arm swing! Like putting more gas into the car, the arm swing can serve as extra fuel to get you up that hill! 5K Training Tip #3: Learn To Run With Less Effort. The 5K distance is a perfect blend of demanding both distance and speed equally.. To find success in the 5K you must learn to expend less energy. You can do this by accessing more power in each step as well as improving the mechanics of your footwork and upper body posture as you run.. To fine-tune this, try adding in 1-2 running drills before 1-2 runs per week.. Here are two of our favorites: 1) The High Skip. The high skip teaches you how to drive the most power out of your foot, each time it comes off the ground.. Exaggerating the driving of the knee to the chest will help you find a more efficient pulling position in your stride.. The explosiveness of this movement will make your distance running more economical around miles 2 and 3.. Complete 2-3 rounds of high skips for 10-30 meters before heading out on your run.. 2) Carioca. The carioca movement encourages opening of the hips for more powerful arm swing as well as quicker footwork for improved cadence control.. Quicker cadence allows you to run faster for longer.. Complete 2-3 rounds of carioca for 10-30 meters before 1-2 runs each week.. These 5K training tips will make a world of difference in your race day running. Use them to improve your ability to hold onto that speed from start to finish! Connect With Us For More Great Training: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/therunexperience.

When it comes to long-distance running, it’s all about the prep work. First, you need to build up your base mileage, then you need to train your body for the long haul. We took on the latter and created three intervals designed to help you gain endurance over time. By starting with a brisk walk and working your way up to a swift run, you’ll conquer that 5K in no time. Watch the video above or follow along below to see how it’s done.. 1. Walk/Jog. When you’re just starting out, proper form and recovery time is much more important than speed.. 5 minutes: warm up gently with a moderate walk that gradually increases. 1 minute: begin an easy jog. 2 minutes: follow with brisk walk to recover. Repeat 10 times. 5 minutes: walk to cool down. 2. Walk/Run. Once you’re comfortable with jogging, you can slowly increase your pace.. 5 minutes: walk briskly to warm up. 30 seconds: run at a swift pace. 90 seconds: speed walk to recover. Repeat 10 times. 5 minutes: walk to cool down. 3. Jog/Run Pyramid. As you progress into running, get the most out of your training by adding muscle-building sprints. In this interval, push yourself and recover for equal periods of time.. 5 minutes: warm up with a moderate jog. 1 minute: 30 seconds at a fast pace/30 seconds to recover. 2 minutes: 1 minute at a fast pace/1 minute to recover. 4 minutes: 2 minutes at a fast pace/2 minutes to recover. 8 minutes: 4 minutes at a fast pace/4 minutes to recover. 4 minutes: 2 minutes at a fast pace/2 minutes to recover. 2 minutes: 1 minute at a fast pace/1 minute to recover. 1 minute: 30 seconds at a fast pace/30 seconds to recover. 10 minutes: walk to cool down. We’ve partnered with adidas Running to prep you for your next 5K.

Many of you enjoyed Part 1 of “How to Prepare for Your First 5k.” Now that you have a good head start, it’s time to address some common errors that new runners make. Getting new shoes for the race. Unless your shoes are showing signs of wear (which I outline below), do.
Along with increasing your mileage, you should include cross-training, which can consist of swimming, cycling, or strength training. If running isn’t your forte, you can run-walk or walk the race. Put your name, address, cell phone number, bib number, and e-mail address clearly on your race bib, or better yet, use a RoadID, which you can wear on your wrist or shoe.
Bring extra tissue. Pre-5K Race Routine. Get to the race early. I would suggest 45 minutes to an hour before the race starts.
This will allow you to get a good parking spot, along with giving you plenty of time to use the bathroom, warm up, stretch, and mentally prepare for your first race. Factors such as what part of your foot you land on, how injury-prone you are, and how heavy you are can influence the type of shoe you need. And remember, one pair doesn’t last forever, especially if you’re logging the miles.
Replace your shoes about every 500 miles max, or when they start to feel flat or hurt your feet. Build Your Base When first starting a 5K-training program, you should be able to walk at a brisk pace — 15 minutes per mile — for 30 minutes. If you cannot, you should build your walking distance first. Once you are ready to add running to your workout, do so gradually with a. About 16 to 20 weeks before the marathon, start building the distance of this workout so you run 20 miles at leastonce before the race.
Preferably, as a first-timer marathoner, you will run 20 to 21 miles two or even three times before race day. So, you’ve run a 5K—maybe even a 10K—and now you’re ready for something more challenging like a half marathon. Good for you! The half marathon is a great distance. It’s long enough to feel challenged, but not so long that training for it completely consumes your life.Below are a few good training tips for your first half marathon.
1. Build. Walk two to three minutes to pre-warm your body. Run 10 minutes at an easy effort to warm up. Run 6 x 2 minutes at a hard but controlled effort in the red zone. Follow every two minutes of hard.
Estimate your time for finishing the ultra and build up to running those total hours over two days. You want to run the full distance (combining back-to-back days) at least three or four times before the race. For example, if you think you will finish in six hour.
List of related literature:
Practice your drinking technique in training as much as possible—trying to mimic race conditions—and follow the pre-hydration guidelines from Chapter 5, starting 36 to 48 hours before the race.
In chapter 6, you’ll learn how—and why—to reduce your mileage as the marathon approaches and what workouts to do just before the race to reach the start line with the optimal blend of being rested and ready.

Finally, in chapter 12, will presentaselection of training plansfor each of four race distances:5K, 10K, half-marathon, and marathon.These plans will help you get started with the adaptive approach to training and the process of becoming an effective self-coach.
If the goal is to run a marathon and the client has never run even 5 miles (8 km), the first goal might be to develop the habit of training four times per week; the second might be to run 2 miles (3.2 km); and the third might be to run in a 10K (6.2-mile) race.
When I signed up for the race, I had more than six months to prepare, so I found a plan that outlined checkpoints and gave me mini goals for my training.
Does it start out where a lot of people can’t reach 1 miles and then after doing it everyday you get longer distances? I can only jog like.85 miles without stopping, but I’ve been walking at least 5 miles everyday, does just running everyday allow you to get further and further like everything else, I need motivation
Hey I just found your video, thanks for creating and posting them for us. I’ve been running a while now but am always looking for new tips to improve my time and distance. Would you by chance have a video on proper stretching for a run, to include before AND after? Thanks.
Am stuck around 20:20 for 5Ks despite tough speed work once a week and long runs of up to 8, usually with some 7:40 miles in second half; running 5 to 6 days a week; getting 5 1/2 to 6 hours sleep; and very busy daily schedule with late evening work. Any suggestions?
Just signed up for my first 5k. I’m not a runner. Ha! Not even a jogger and I have no clue, But I found a pair of running shoes in my closet that I’ve never worn (my husband bought them for me cause I said they’re cute 3 years ago) an app ( couch to 5k ) and this video!! Now I just need to do the work. Race is Aug 25th ��
I just ran my first 5k (Humana 5k) on 06-15-19 and got first place in my age group (20-39), second place for female overall and fourteenth place in the race as a whole! I work at Humana, signed up because my coworker made the T-shirts for the 5k; I certainly wasn’t expecting to do so well! The thing is, before that day, I never ran or jogged; I just power-walk every single day. Be it on breaks at work or just walking around my family’s kitchen table, I must have been working my heart up enough and didn’t even realize my potential! I can’t wait to sign up for another one!
looking straight ahead when running up hill, I have issues doing this as I wear prescription glasses and loose the step/ terrain that my feet are landing on.
when running a 5 km I break it up by turning round whilst still moving in the same direction and run backwards for about 10 to 15 meters
Hi, I’m beginner and planning to go for a 5K run. All I can do at the moment is a non-stop run of 3K in 20 minutes.I breath heavily and could not run further.Does these squats for every mile will help me? Do you suggest any other strategy to be adopted? Thanks, Jerome

A girl that cute better be able to run fast-she’s running in a bad neighborhood over the First Street Bridge in L.A! She looks great.
I’ve been looking for a video like this! Really wanting to start getting back into running and your video is giving me all this inspo! ����♀️

stretching really is so important! if you don’t stretch injuries are more likely to occur and you won’t be in as good shape as possible.
