• Recovering well after a training session

  How to recover properly? 1/ Recovery time This is the foundation. The body’s internal recovery process takes time. The more demanding a session is, the more time your body will need to recover. That’s why each session comes with a difficulty rating and a recommended minimum recovery time. Trying to shorten these recovery periods can be counterproductive, so we advise against it. Difficulty level 4 or 5 =Few readers

• How to Warm Up Properly?

  The 3 Key Phases of a Proper Warm-Up 1. Muscle Activation This phase is especially important if you're running in the morning. After sleeping, your body lacks mobility. Muscle activation helps gently wake up your joints, tendons, and muscles. It only takes 5 minutes and can be added before any training session. 2. Start Slowly to Avoid Shocking the Body When you begin running, you’re “shocking” your body by taking it out of its resting state. Running isn’t as gentle on theFew readers

• I’ve finished my plan—what should I do next?

  After a Marathon / Half-Marathon Plan Recovery after a marathon or half-marathon is crucial and should not be underestimated! Sometimes it feels like recovery is going well and you’re tempted to start running again too soon. Be careful! A large number of runners get injured 2 to 3 weeks after completing a marathon or half-marathon. We recommend that you don’t run at all for at least one week, and possibly even two if you feel like you're not fully recovered. No running doesn't mean nFew readers

• Is it useful to include hill workouts in my training plan, and if so, how should I incorporate them?

  If you're a road runner, it can be very beneficial to do some of your intensity sessions on hills. The sessions in your plan that are most suitable for this are those labeled "strength endurance" and "speed." If you're training for a trail race, hill workouts are a must! All "trail hill" sessions should be done on an incline. All other intensity sessions can also be done on hills, but you'll need to rely on perceived effort and heart rate rather than pace. For your long runs, we recommend doingFew readers

• How should I organize my training week?

  Build your week around your schedule — that’s the whole idea! We deliberately chose not to assign specific days of the week to the training sessions in your program, so we’re not imposing a fixed schedule. That doesn’t mean there isn’t a structure to follow — it just means we don’t want to force it on you. For amateur runners, life understandably takes priority over training. So the goal is to organize your training around your life, not the other way around. How should I organize myFew readers

• Adapting Training to the other sports I Practice

  If You Practice Multiple Sports Cross-training means practicing several sports in parallel. The benefits of cross-training are well established. So if you're involved in multiple physical activities, your running level may not fully reflect your overall training load and fitness. We analyze the data you provide as if you're exclusively a runner. However, if cross-training has boosted your running performance, it may create a gap between the training plan we provide and what you've beenFew readers

• I train with a club once a week — can that replace a Campus intense session?

  On Campus, we suggest a minimum recovery time between two intense sessions. So, your club’s intense session can replace the intense session planned in your Campus week. Ideally, you should try to do a session that’s fairly similar to the one recommended in your plan, so you stay on track and give yourself the best shot at reaching your goal!Few readers
