Tempo training plans

Tempo training plans are designed to improve endurance and speed by having you run at a challenging but sustainable pace—faster than your usual comfortable speed, but not all-out effort. Typically, this involves running for a set period or distance, then resting briefly, and repeating multiple times. The goal is to help your body adapt to maintaining a quicker pace longer, boosting overall running efficiency. It’s a balanced workout that pushes your limits gradually, making you faster without excessive fatigue. Tempo runs are an essential part of many training programs for runners working towards race goals or increased performance.
