1️⃣ Skipping Consistent Training 🎯

It might sound simple, but it’s true: consistency matters more than occasional breakthrough sessions. Stringing together quality weeks of training builds deeper endurance, higher resilience, and confidence — without overloading your body.

✔️Runna’s structured training balances workload and recovery so you can keep showing up, week after week, and keep progressing.

2️⃣ Getting the Easy Runs Wrong 🤔

When aiming for sub-2:30, it’s easy to accidentally run too fast on days meant for recovery. Easy runs allow you to absorb the harder work — keeping them genuinely easy improves aerobic endurance and is essential for performing in your workouts.

✔️Runna’s personalised pacing insights guide your effort for every session, so you get the proper benefits every time. No wasted miles.

3️⃣ Leaving Goal Pace Until Race Day ⚡️

Confidence comes from familiarity. Including controlled goal-pace efforts during training helps your body learn what sub-2:30 pacing should feel like. These sessions don’t need to feel all-out — the aim is to build rhythm and confidence.

✔️ Runna tailors workouts to your current level, helping you gradually build towards your goal with smart progression and recovery built in.
