Running Tips for Peak Performance

Welcome to Running Training Tips, a free online library of running tips for peak performance – everything you need to know for your running training program.

If you are looking for running training advice to improve your endurance, to train more efficiently, and to race faster, you are at the right running website.

Here you can learn about the most important aspects of running: training techniques, conditioning, racing tactics and strategies, improving your health, avoiding over training, and controlling your weight.

You'll find advice about nutrition for better running, running training schedules, dealing with sports medicine injuries. A section on running health and safety will also be very useful to you.

All of the information found here is based on experience and extensive research from exercise science journals. It's not necessarily what the popular media espouses! The information I’m passing on to you is up-to-date, scientifically proven in the lab, and more importantly, proven on the track, road or cross-country.

The running advice on this website applies to all distance events: from 5K to the 26.2-mile marathon, and everything in between.

Whether you are a beginning or experienced runner, an elite distance runner, or a jogger running a few miles each day for health and fitness - you can use the information here. The training distances and intensity will vary from runner to runner, but the training principles stay the same.

I add new running tips and information every week, so please drop by often to keep up with new developments and news in distance running training.
