Am I Running Too Slow?
I doubt it.I can almost guarantee you are running too fast rather than too slow.Everyone thinks that performance comes from hard workouts.In reality, your best performances are predominantly dictated by your aerobic base. Not your ability to run 10x 1min fast.Running longer than 60min requires the ability to utilise fats maximally, spare carbohydrates, and buffer the acidity of lactate production to maintain maximal running economy for the duration of the event. At no point are you required to run ‘fast’. Your aerobic system contributes 98% of the energy required for events lasting 60min or more. Therefore, your most significant potential to get faster lies in building your aerobic base.The biggest mistake I see runners make is thinking they need to run fast to get fast.
