The Essentials Of Run Cadence

Now this is interesting. I never knew this, but I did find out through trial and error that bigger strides = more energy expended. Therefore, when running up a hill, shorter is better, and when running for distance, shorter is also better, so this confirms it. I will admit that my sprint steps are still longer than my fast jog/easy run steps, because, as the article explains,  it’s counter-intuitive to shorten strides when you want to go faster.

10K Training – Day 22: Getting Faster – Day 18

Tracks: ZR (Beta track here), Endomondo, Strava

Target: 7km 5:37 – 5:45 min/km

Achieved: 4.68km 6:23min/km. Outside my target range, but mainly because I forgot to stop the app from tracking, so ended up with several minutes stationary being tracked – and that penalised me.

Next Run: Thursday – 5km Intervals 5:21 – 5:45 min/km

10K Training – Day 21: Getting Faster – Day 17

Tracks: ZR (Beta track here), Endomondo, Strava

Target: 5km 7:42 min/km

Achieved: 4.58km 5:26 min/km. Missed this yesterday due to impromptu babysitting, so I’m going to do a double-run today.

Next Run: Today – 7km 5:37 – 5:45 min/km
