Is it Effective to Run the Same Distance Every Time?
Question:
Is it effective to run the same distance (10 km, for instance) every time at the same speed or should I increase the intensity of training? My goal is to lose weight and stay healthy.

Good afternoon,
In terms of energy consumption the duration of running is important. Too short runs don't help you to burn fats as metabolism of fats starts when the glycogen stores are depleted but it takes some time.
If we consider your case and 10 km running these goals are easy to achieve. So, if you don't want to increase your running distance, don't do it. It's more important to keep stable training frequency (but at least 2 trainings a week). In this case, I think, the goals you set - to lose weight and stay healthy - will almost certainly be achieved.

Running and Weight Loss
Question:
Good day.
I'd like to know could I use running as a weight loss tool? I'm 182 sm tall and my weight is 98 kg but my goal weight is 80 kg.
There is belief, for instance, that weight loss is not good for power exercises as muscles grow slowly in case of lack of calories even if you eat enough protein.
- How does weight loss impact on running? Is it possible to both lose your weight and at the same time improve your running results?
- Does weight loss affect my running speed? It's easier for a light runner to run than a heavy runner, isn't it? So, it turns out that a light runner will always run faster than a heavy one, provided they have the same fitness level. Am I right?
FYI: I started running two years ago but I'm running slowly, this may be due to my weight. I run 10 km in 1:05 or within an hour sometimes.
Heavy Legs. What to Do?
Question:
Good afternoon.
My legs feel heavy after 10 km running and it becomes harder and harder for me to continue running. In the result I literally drag my feet at the end of a half-marathon distance, what to do?
