PEAK Running Program

Running, and combination sports like triathlon and duathlon require that key elements of time, distance and intensity be specifically trained, at particular times during the year. Not knowing how to properly structure these three elements may result in inefficient training, and wasted training time.

We know that running fitness must be progressively trained and that a specific, trainable science to running exists whether you are a beginner or seasoned runner.

  • Accurate blood lactate testing ongoing throughout the year
  • Program design (5 km, 10 km, ½ marathon, marathon distances)
