There's a huge flaw in using no more than 20 to 25% of weekly mileage, in that anyone only doing 4 runs a week, 25% would equate to each run, only 5 runs a week and that's 20%. I'd say a huge proportion of recreational runners aren't doing more than 4 or 5 runs per week.
@ReimerKeith5 жыл бұрын
Exactly. A recreational runner doing 5-5-5-5-0-10-0 has a long run equalling 33% of weekly miles. The rule pretty much means no half-marathons unless you run 45+ a week, which doesn't match reality or most novice to intermediate plans.
@dianamcmullen36595 жыл бұрын
Is it "flawed", or is it possible recreational runners are simply not doing what's advised? Just because it's how many people train doesn't make it compliant with the rules of thumb. The reality is, your average recreational runner gets injured at least once a year...many injuries require substantial time off running. This is often due to a lack of compliance with what those general rules of thumbs are. I think 20-25% of total weekly equaling the long run is about right. Where it doesn't necessarily apply is when people get WAY up there in mileage...for example, ultra runners. When we're doing 80-100 mpw...and we're training for 100K or 100 miles....we are not going to top out at 25 miles as our longest long run...nor are we necessarily going to want to INCREASE mileage to comply with the rule of thumb.
@8draco85 жыл бұрын
@@dianamcmullen3659 Nope, 20-25% is not right. If you think that 20-25% is right then average marathoner should do 80-100 mpw in peak weeks, something that you just said that only crazy ultra people are doing. Even Hal Higdon, a guy whose training plans are regarded as gold standard is asking (in peak week) for 50% (for marathon novice plan) and 32% (for advanced plan) of weekly mileage on the long run. Training for marathon require you to do couple (at least two) long runs around 32k/20mil long. If going with assumption that long run supposed to be 20% of weekly mileage that would mean at least 2 weeks in the training plan of 160k/100mil so even when training 7 days a week that would be 6x21k(a half-marathon) and 32k on Sunday, that's just ridiculous. Further more, starting with 20k weekly mileage and keeping the golden rule of increasing your weekly mileage by 10% it would take 24 weeks (5 and half months) to reach 160k weekly mileage and that do not include low mileage/rest weeks, with those the whole training plan would be 6+ months not usual 16-18 weeks.

Lots of runners run 4 times a week. Or 3. If you stick to the 25% rule, running 4 times a week by definition means no long run, as all runs have to be exactly the same to be 25% if one is even slightly shorter than the rest, say 20% of your weekly mileage, then another will become 30% to make the mileage add up to 100%

Most of my training week is spent doing long easy runs, minimum distance 14km up to 18km. Then one day doing 14km race pace (rest, with a 7km easy run afterwards) and the other day doing sprints/hill climbs. But it's the easy runs that have improved my average pace and enabled me to hold that pace for the entire distance on race day (usually a half-marathon). Naturally I increase these distances when preparing for a marathon.

When you are looking 20 to 25% of your mileage should you just be looking at your running volume or overall training load?

By mathematical definition, if you're running twice a week, one or both of your runs have to be more than 25% as 25+75= 100% or 50+50, etc. The 25% rule must be for most runners, then, bad, as most runners run 2 to 4 times a week and the numbers don't add up.

I liked the video because you mentioned some great tips for balancing and managing your long runs, but you didn’t answer the question about whether long runs are bad or not. Is the science on this conclusive? What if a person is doing all the “little things” like strength training, mobility drills, good dieting, and getting good rest? Are long runs bad then? If a person only runs long distances without the other stuff, is that bad? Could be a good debate. Maybe provide some studies and research that compare these populations. Your tips are good, but from your video you clearly support long runs as good for us.

need the long run (2 hrs and more IMO) for the half marathon and above but it does contribute to burnout, adrenal fatigue and burning of lean muscle tissue. As far as long term health I would say long runs or long bike rides for that matter do not contribute to longevity but both can be fun and addicting so maybe as a hormetic therapy pop up the cardio occasionally so the body has to adapt but avoid doing it all the time.

When the stay-at- home started I got Skechers Go Run Razor shoes and started up again. They are pretty minimal and not much of a drop. Racked up alot of miles. Then put on the Xero shoes, and wow, I was not using good mechanics. I didn't put the Xeros back on but after that, but I started immediately landing on my forefoot and getting that range of motion one has to use with barefoot style. Had some aches and pains but I now believe one can use barefoot mechanics on a racing shoe. I have yet to buy a daily trainer because of this and have been adding 1mm rubber resoling material to the Skechers with Shoe Goo to extend it's life.

@@karliszauers1 Yes theres alot of truth to that. i got told what i was told by a family member who was a doctor before he retired. He basically said hes seen many originally really fit people ending up needing hip, knee replacements and back problems etc which has basically stopped their keep fit days. Then of course the rest of their health quickly deteriorates and they end up dieing from the things they were trying to prevent in the first place. He reccomended short runs often to minimise wear and tear basically just to keep the BP Healthy.

@@paxundpeace9970 Yeah I speak from the perspective of a now 41 year old who had a football/soccer career it’s all the little twists pulls and niggles that sneak up on you later on things like Arthritis can start to set in. If I could go back I would definitely of run a lot less and used things like cycling swimming a lot more which puts less stress on those joints.

This guy is very very young, and seems for now to have good genetics of staying injury free. Let's talk to him in 20-30 years. Long 15 mile runs or more are for most people not healthy. During my triathlon training days I have heard all the stupid stories. From the guy who ran the marathon in 2hr38 min, after knee operations now cycling like crazy in the hills??? Or from the guy who laughed how he passed runners and lured them in following him while raising the tempo, now fat and doing no sports because he shot his heels to pieces. The most important lesson we learn today is that youtube is not the best source to get answers to your question about health;)
