The SIMPLE System To Improve Your Stamina - How To Run Longer (Without Getting Tired)

Love the analogy for recovery of 'letting the cement dry first'. Made me resist the temptation to go out today when I know 'it's not quite dry yet - one more day should do it!' Thanks again Team Parry!

I lift regularly, 5 days a week. When I started training for a half marathon, I was able to run 4 miles within a week. In three months, I could run 11 miles. I attribute a lot of my endurance to my strength training.

It's great seeing content directed at new and new-again runners. I know, intellectually, not to compare myself to long term runners but so much content is focused on really athletic people trying to become even more athletic. It can get in your head after a while.

I wish I could still run. That priciple, no doubt, holds true for bicycling as well. long story short: metal hip, came apart-ish. Touch of covid for a week. old age. stamina needs rebuilding. Thanks for this, it gives me something to work with.

Great video. Really clear. Awesome content based on the science. Running slower to get faster is so counterintuitive but so true.

A long run can mean so much per person. 10K is a long run for me, but I do want to find a healthy way to increase my distance 😊

I love these lessons. I find that it might feel silly to run so slow but it does make you faster !

2:55 Totally agree with this. I HATE coming back after a break or (especially) injury and seeing the slow times I'm running compared to my PB times. I have to say though, it's a lot easier now that I have a treadmill because it allows me to be patient with the foundation and build phases, probably more so as I'm not running my usual circuits and being tempted to run them a bit faster or longer. It's nice after several weeks/months getting back out there knowing I'm prepared. Sure, the times are still much lower than past PBs, but I know that as I've built a solid base, the times will start coming down rapidly when I introduce more distance and speed.

I have just gotten back to running from being injured for 8 months and it to needing to run a mile twice a week in P.E. I pt definitely took a toll on my running skills thanks for this video😅

Great video Guys.. and Shona 😊

I'm 47...and I used to run..8 miles..every other day...I took a big break of the running...and then now I can't do even a mile...soo frustrating...because I'm soo tired.

Great vedio ....I am 42 years . I started jogging about 3 months ago after a 20 years gap.. now I am doing 7 km easy jog daily and a 10 km once a week ...running speed is not my priority at the moment... is it OK to jog this much ....I feal fatigue in middle of week....

Thumbs up for the Thumbnail and the video info was also fine.

Thank you! Great info.

Excellent way to explain it

"Long run is 30% of other total other run. " This says very little 30% of the last 10 days 12 days, 2 days, last 2 runs?

I seem to be building stamina by a gradual increase in weekly mileage. But it doesn't always keep me going flat out on parkrun race day. Maybe I need to work on strength for that. Or maybe take it very easy on my Friday run.

At the standard I am, 10k is my long run. If that is 30% I need to do shorter distances on other days to make up the 70%? As it stands 10k is 100% of my weekly running

30% equation means that a 20-mile run should happen in a 60+ mile (100K) week, which most marathon trainers don't do. So, for any runner, (esp. a 50+ runner), does cycling 2-3 times a week (and if yes, how much: 12 miles or 20 each ride?) give enough background for a 20-miler on weekends (2-3 in a 12-week cycle)?

What if you do not have that much cement?
