A marathon race where people show off just how well they have trained for this long distance run.

Long distance is for the true diehards of running, but its also for the people who just want to get in shape and stay in shape and don’t feel like doing 15-20 sprints a day. I don’t blame them sprints are not fun. Long Distance builds up your cardiovascular endurance and your overall stamina. This type of training is ofter seen used by marathon runners, cross country runners, and long distance runners in track. Some workouts to help in your long distance training are a mile run, a two mile run, a three mile run, an off on 1-2-3-4 mile run. Off Ons are my personal favorite when training long distance. It’s when you run for one minute then take thirty seconds off as a walk, then repeat. One minute on and thirty second off.
