RUNNNG 102- Introduction to 10k training and continued fitness

 

Pre-requisite is three or more months of consistent running experience or immediate completion of Running 101. In this course you will begin where RA101 finished and steadily advance into the RA102 format.

 

This course expands on the information covered in RA101. In addition this course will follow a more advanced curriculum as you progress.

 

A stronger emphasis will be placed on biomechanics of running form as well as upper body strengthening exercises to become a more efficient runner. Upon completion of this course you will be prepared to run a 10k. You may choose to re-enroll in RA102 multiple times to improve your overall fitness and running efficiency. If you choose to challenge yourself to a longer distance please consider our more advanced classes Running 201-half marathon training or Running 301- marathon training

 

You training will follow a standard training pyramid which will go as follows:

 

BASE BUILDING/ENDURANCE training for the first 3 weeks. At this level you will be begin to work on a good base of running. You will be running slowly with the sole purpose of training your body to endure the constant pounding of running long distances. Towards the end of this first phase we will cover step by step the basics rules of running biomechanics.

 

STRENGTH training will occur in weeks 4-6. In this stage you will be introduced to longer sustained running and short 20 second surges of quicker paced running. Finally in this stage you will practice the techniques on running mechanics covered in the first stage.

 

SPEED training begins in weeks 7 & 9. As you become more comfortable running at this level this is the perfect time to introduce drills which will assist in speed training on the track.

 

PEAKING in week 10 &11 will provide you the confidence to run your 10k with the utmost efficiency. At this level you will feel strong, confident and ready,

 

TAPERING in week 12 may be one of the most important sessions. This is the final week but your training is not yet complete. Now it is time to rest and allow your body to repair itself from the past 11 weeks of training. During this week you will be cutting down the time on the road and by race day you will be like a “race horse in the starting gate.”
