Before you know it, you are running a 5k! But a lot of runners have a hard time making improvements after they have become comfortable with 2-3 mile runs. You want to continue to build your endurance and run a little further or longer. Maybe you even want to run a 10 miler or half marathon, but itâs daunting.
Patience combined with persistence is a great combination for success in running.. What you should do: Whatever your present endurance conditioning, build it slow but steady. We like a program that adds 1 mile a week to your weekend long run, for example: 5 miles, 6 miles, 7 miles. Every 4th week, reduce mileage by skipping the long run. Rest and recover. The next week, start building again, 1 mile at a time: 8 miles, 9 miles, etc.
