Good day!

I’ve myself never practiced this and no one of my coaches offered me such type of training. I saw how sprinters and especially jumpers used weights; I understand the goal of such trainings for them aimed to develop speed and power.

So, I don’t see methodical grounds for running with weights when training for endurance running.

10 km Personal Record, How To Train And Increase the Distance To 21 km?
Question:

Good afternoon.

I practice running since September. I ran 10 km in 1:09 yesterday in Sochi. My best result so far ... It was very hard race.

I can not figure out how to train further. Should I increase the running distance or just try to break the 1 hour limit.

My goal is endurance development and 21 km race in the long term.

Thank you for the opportunity to know the answer.
