What sets Higher Running apart?

It’s obvious we care. We don’t just make dynamic training plans, we actually coach. We care about how you feel, what you think, and what’s going on in your life. You matter to us as an athlete and person.

There's no such thing as the perfect "long run formula!"

If you've heard of things like, "your long run should be 30% of your total weekly mileage," well, that's not always true. It's going to vary significantly by runner!

Let Coach @SageCanaday explain...

Progress doesn’t always show up the first time you try something new, like increasing mileage or adding speed into long runs. Sometimes the biggest gains show up the second time you commit to a smart, patient training approach.

Are you doing "Zone 2" the wrong way? The vast majority of the runs we prescribe our athletes are Zone 2, but there are other Zones you need to train in order to progress as a runner.

Coach @SageCanday digs into the details for how to structure your Zone 2 training!

Base Phase Training For #Runners:

We're approaching the time of year where most people are working on their base. But how soon can you add in speed workouts?

Your goals matter. Your health matters. And you deserve a training plan, and a coach, tailored specifically for you.

Tempo vs. Uptempo Runs: Is there a difference?

As a runner, should you train by TIME or DISTANCE?

Here's why Coach @SageCanaday usually prefers going by miles! Of course, there are exceptions for long ultras or high altitude races when we would factor in time.
