I AM A SLOW-TWITCH RUNNER

My goal is to run 5K under 20 minutes. I have not succeeded yet. The 5K-distance requires good anaerobic capacity and a powerful running stride, and these are my weaknesses. Even if I want to run fast, I just cannot. Entering the finish line, I am not exhausted, but I can also not run faster during the actual event. I am typical slow-twitch (ST)-runner.

 

In the following article you can read more about:

 

  • How I as a ST-runner work, and react to different kinds of training.
  • My learnings from several years of goal-orientated training.
  • Different running workouts that works for me as ST-runner.
  • How I will move forward to become a better runner.
