I mitt träningsprogram som jag följer rekommenderas följande (under en period av ca åtta veckor):
Långpass 1 dag/vecka, intervaller 3 dagar/vecka, distans med strides 3 dagar/vecka.
Om strides skrivs följande:
"You need to concentrate on developing speed to near its maximum by carrying out sprint training workouts that begin with suppling and loosening exercises, then proceed to sprint starts and sprint races, and leg speed training. A typical workout could be:
1. warm-up by running easily for about 15 minutes
2. calisthenics for 10-15 minutes
3. run easily for 5 more minutes
4. 70-100 meter sprints, concentrating on the following elements (jog 3 minutes between each):
a. developing stride length by exaggerating the strides and pushing off hard with the back leg;
b. running tall, bringing your knees high and getting up high on your toes;
c. moving the legs as fast as possible to develop quick leg turn-over;
d. a final set of runs combines all of these things [28].
Each exercise (a-d) of part 4 can be done two or three times. In addition, some sprint starts can be used and a sprint race or two competed in for training. Any form of American sprint training is usually good as long as it covers these points. All middle and long distance runners should do some sprints races and train to develop their leg speed, as this increases their economy of action and reserves energy for the latter stage of competition. Be careful not to rush through sprint training (as opposed repetition training), giving yourself sufficient recovery after each run."
Vet inte om detta följer definitionen av strides bokstavligen, men det känns tillräckligt nära för att kunna vara intressant.
