Increase your 10k with SPEED 🏃🏼and STRENGTH Increase your 10k with SPEED 🏃🏼and STRENGTH 💪🏻 by … . 1️⃣ Run shorter distances to get your legs running fast🦵🏻. Split your race into 2 mile segments, with the first two relaxed and steady. Pick up slightly for the third and fourth mile and then either maintain or finish faster till the end of race. 2️⃣ Run your local 5k event and then once you’re finished run another 5km. 3️⃣ Run quicker than your 10k pace. Try 4-6 X 1 mile fast intervals with two minutes recovery between the mile reps. 4️⃣ Run a 10k at a pace you want to race. . 5️⃣ Train on an athletics track to work on your speed. Use your 5k time and work out how fast that is per 1 loop (400m). Run 10 X 400m with one-minute recovery after 5k. .
