Many runners hear about Zone 2 training, but few understand why it matters. 🧠🏃‍♂️

Running in Zone 2 means training at a low aerobic intensity where your body primarily uses fat as fuel.

Research shows this type of training helps:

• increase mitochondrial density
• improve fat metabolism
• build long-term endurance capacity

That’s why elite endurance athletes spend most of their training time at low intensity.

In simple terms:

Running slower today
helps you run faster later.

Do you include Zone 2 runs in your training?

Most runners think every run should feel hard.

Science says the opposite. 🧠🏃‍♂️

Research on endurance athletes shows that about 70–80% of training should be done at an easy intensity.

Why?

• Easy runs build your aerobic base
• They improve mitochondrial capacity and endurance
• They allow recovery between harder sessions
• They reduce risk of overtraining and injury

If every run feels hard, you are probably running too fast.

The real secret of strong runners: they run easy most of the time.

How often do you run easy?

I feel double good when I meet Luzula sylvatica.
Yes, this grass makes me happy. Except for other great things 😁.

Now I need some energy to keep me in a good place and finish this unplanned run well. I’ll try .nutrition . Someone said it’s good. So let’s try it.

And yes, I’d better hurry. It doesn’t look like Christmas is just a couple of days away, but the early darkness says it’s not spring yet.
