Performance hack
Many beginner runners try to complete continuous runs even when their fitness isn’t ready. They might feel embarrassed to break up a run, or believe continuous running is the most effective approach.
This can lead to excessive stress on the musculoskeletal system and unnecessarily high intensity, while also limiting the time and energy available to focus on proper running technique.
Including run-walk intervals is not a sign of weakness — in fact, it’s a strategy often used by elite athletes.
For example, instead of a 30-minute continuous run, try:
30 × (40s run + 20s brisk walk)
This type of session can be progressed over time, either by increasing total duration or by adjusting the run-to-walk ratio.
