How do I run faster?

A good way to increase your speed when running is to split up your training session.

1. Do a short warm up

2. Follow this with a slow run lasting about 5-10 minutes

3. Next do a sprint for 3-5 minutes

4. Then return to step two

You can switch between steps 2 and 3 until you’ve completed the length of run you set out to do.

Alternatively, incorporate short sprints of around ten minutes into your weekly running schedule.
