Training
Training, training, training is what it takes to become a winning team. But training doesn't mean running flat-out all the time. Rather, a smart runner working with an experienced coach will run hard one day, easy the next, allowing time for recovery and muscle growth. This makes it difficult for a coach to know whether each runner is making steady progress.
Performance tracking
The Personal Best web site can help by tracking the performance of each runner and making it clear how the performance changes over time.
Interviews
- After creating an account on Personal Best a runner can…
- Enter her performance for each training run; the site will store the data
- Later examine all performance records, or examine the records only for a specific event (running distance)
- Prepare a graph her performance in an event showing clearly the results of smart training
Interviews with four experienced runners provide a wealth of tips for your own training successful.
