Hi!
I'm a beginning runner, and as I would like to increase both the frequency and total mileage per
week, I want to ask you what the benefits and risks of my training habits are. I run about twice
a week, 3-5 miles each time, and I do usually two 100-150m sprints - in the middle and at the
end of the session. This very exhausting, I usually need to walk after sprints to catch air and
ease my pulse.
I do this for fun, I enjoy running fast (and racing with buses but also because I figure that
this way I can activate other parts of muscles, gain strength and overall speed. What I fear is that
I might get some micro- or other injuries, by accelerating hard without being well prepared.
What are your opinions? I could not find this information in FAQ, I run into some posts about
sprinting, however I still don't know whether this sprinting is ok.
take care, cheers!
