Weight Train for a better run

A lot of runners concentrate on CV training but if you add some weight training and resistance work you will notice a difference in your strength, speed and endurance. Also by ensuring you train your entire body (which is often something not done by runners) you can help avoid injury. A strong back and core, plus powerful shoulders and chest will all make your run more efficient and it goes without saying that the stronger your legs the easier your run! So do not be put off by the muscle clad beefcakes in the weights room, just show them what your made of and to be honest you will get a lot of respect and compliments from the beef cakes and a confidence boost like that is never a bad thing.

Commitment pays off - eventually

Stick at it. The first few weeks are very often the worst so remember – it can only get better!
