Description by Addy Ruiter, Joshua Cheptegei's coach. Link: www.nnrunningteam.com/news/2019-02-26-travelling-man/ “It is a much more difficult environment than, say, in Iten (in Kenya) because Kapchorwa is halfway up the slope of a big mountain,” explains Addy “This means the athletes have two options; to run up or run down. The hilly nature of the terrain makes it very difficult for the athletes to get many kilometres in their legs, so I adjust my training strategy. Rather than tally up kilometres I think more in terms of minutes when setting the training programme.”

Thanks. How much are you running per week? Are you consistently training? Are you doing a long run? any intervals? Eating and sleeping well? those are some of the factors that will improve your running.
