    About this ebook

    You can stay in shape by running.  It does not matter what kind you are doing, you can effectively get rid of some calories by doing it.  When you are distance running, it can be a great way to train for a marathon or some other kind of race.  However, that does not mean that running distance is for marathons only.  

    There are people who use distance running to lose excess weight or just to stay fit.  Each person can adapt to different speeds and distances for their own personal agenda.  Since everyone’s body is different, everyone will not run at the same pace.  

    If you are a beginner with distance running, then you will want to take your time.  Don’t rush it, especially because it’s a new process for you.  You have to give yourself time to shape up or whatever your plans were.  

    Rome was not built in a day, so you will also have to take it day by day.  Before you know it, you will be appreciative that you did not rush to any decisions concerning distance running and training.

    This report will discuss six different types of distance running:

    • Sprinting

    • Middle Distance Running

    • Marathon Running

    • Long Distance Running

    • Ultrarunning

    • Multiday Running

    You can also have mental benefits from doing this kind of training program with distance running.  So, whatever you set out to do, make sure that it is worthwhile for yourself, your body and other people.  No decision that you make affect just you.  It affects other people as well.

    So as you start on your training journey, keep in mind that this is not popularity contest on who can run the fastest or the longest.  It’s about training your body through different kinds of distance running techniques.

      Science Of Strength

      Dec 16, 2019

      I have lost count of the times I have heard a runner say that they don’t do strength training. When asked why, I almost always get the response: “I don’t need it.” I then ask “How many times have you been injured?” or “Don’t you wish you were faster?
