Good day!

When planning training for early school age children you should pay special attention to the intensity and volume of cyclic loads. At the initial stage of training (for initial training group) I would recommend to avoid monotonic cyclic loads and prefer play-based running training (physical games, football etc.). High-speed interval trainings (accelerations during games) are good for short-distance running. It only remains for a coach to help you to work out some technical aspects such as running and starting techniques.

You shouldn’t forget about GPP (general physical preparedness) as well. But GPP exercises should be done without weights. Bodyweight exercises are preferable (abs exercises, push-ups, pull-ups).

A training process organized properly will help to improve a 10 year old boy’s results gradually just at the cost of a child’s natural growth.

First Marathon
Question:

Oleg Sergeevich, good afternoon.

I run half-marathons regularly, my personal record is 1:52:00.

I've finished running season and plan to return to running trainings in spring (in late March or in the beginning of April). I have several questions:

  1. What date should I choose for my first marathon's start considering that I plan to return to running trainings in March and let's assume that I'll start to train for a marathon since 1st April? I would like to prepare good, it doesn't mean quickly because my main goal is to run a marathon without injuries.
  2. Could you give me some recommendations on training plan: frequency of trainings per week, weekly running volume? How will the weekly running mileage change every month?
  3. What's number of speed trainings a week? How many long runs should I do?

Thank you.

2 Trainings a Day: Should I Slow Down?
Question:

Good afternoon, Oleg.

My name is Eldar, I'm in Turkey now.

I started running  a month and a half ago and I'm good at it: I run 10 km in 37 minutes.

I've registered for the Istanbul marathon for 10 km.

I run 10 km 2 times a day, in morning and evening. Should I limit the frequency and long of training before the soon start of the marathon?
