The long run is a staple to long distance running and training. This run is included to help develop endurance and it is progressive in nature. In a training cycle, as time goes on the long run gradually increases to help runners adapt to the longer distances. These runs don’t need to be very fast (RPE 5-7); the goal is to keep moving for longer periods of time.
