As a distance runner, you need strength that will last mile after mile. This resistance training program will get you running further, faster while helping prevent injury.
This program includes 3 days per week of resistance training, making it a perfect coupling with your running regimen. You can still focus on logging miles, and it won’t leave you too sore to enjoy each run.
Train virtually alongside like-minded athletes. Use the TrainHeroic app to communicate with your coach and encourage your teammates. Program updates will be added weekly.
