Hello high school distance runners and here is our spring training guide (January-March) from RunBlogRun.
Training Tuesday, March 17, 2026
We finished the indoor season on Sunday. It will culminate on a global scale with the World Indoor Championships in Torun, Poland this coming weekend. Stay tuned for updates on where to watch and who you’ll be seeing. Also check out updates from last weekend’s NIKE Indoor Champs and New Balance Indoor Champs.
Your Tuesday workouts. warm up, 60 minute hilly run, run at least 10 hills (2-3 minutes each) during this run, push hills, recover on hills, cool down. Get out of wet clothes early after exercise, change, shoes and socks too. Consider recovery shoes (we’ll have suggestions later this week).
Hydration is a state of mind. Hydration isn’t about drinking lots of sugary drinks, it’s about drinking water, 8-12 glasses of 8-12 oz a day, carrying a water bottle, and managing caffeine and sugary drinks, which for a true athlete is absolute crap. Also, stay away from so-called sports energy drinks and don’t combine them with alcohol. Why train your ass and then mess it up by putting some junk in your mortal engine?
Want to be a better middle distance runner than you were before? Focus and follow our training. It’s all about consistency.
