FALL INTO TRAINING

TIME TO BUILD YOUR BASE

  • LONG RUNS

    Fall is the perfect season to lock in your training. The cooler air, changing scenery, and steady buildup of miles now will set you up for a strong race day. Take advantage of this time to steadily increase your mileage. A solid aerobic base now means less stress later when speed workouts kick in.

  • TRAIN FOR HILLS EARLY

    RunSedona is known for its rolling course. Incorporating hill repeats into your fall training helps you build strength and confidence for race day. Our course maps can be found HERE. Check out the elevation changes for your distance and build it into your routine.

  • GET GUIDANCE FROM RUNNA

    For a personal training plan made for RunSedona's course and your goals, try Runna. It gives custom workouts, pacing tips, and support as you improve. Use code RUNSEDONA for 2 free weeks. Learn more about Runna’s plans for RunSedona here.

  • SHAKE IT UP

    Shake, rattle, and roll your running routine with energizing speed work or challenging hill sessions, and explore fresh new routes and terrains to keep every run exciting and adventurous. Don’t forget to add strength training to build lasting power and maintain a strong, injury-free body that’s ready to take on anything.

  • GROOVE THE MILES AWAY

    Do you enjoy listening to music while running? It can help maintain your pace and distract you from early fatigue! We’ve created three RunSedona playlists on Spotify to prepare you for race day. Choose the Beats Per Minute (bpm) that matches your style.

    160-200 bpm
