CONGRATS TO ALL WHO TOOK PART IN THE 2024 EVENT
WHAT IS SQUADRUN?
SQUADRUN has partnered with River-Run Backyard Ultra to provide a coaching and training package specific to the event.
SQUADRUN is first and foremost a running community. It’s a passionate group of people sharing their experiences and supporting one another on their journey to fitness. It is also a training system which delivers excellent ‘low-cost, high-subscription’ based coaching.
Beyond coaching the group enables SQUADRUN to access special offers, discounts and much more. All of this must be seen to be believed and countless happy ‘Squaddies’ are testament to the quality coaching product and complete training package delivered to them.
Your Coaches Kerry and Ali will develop a plan based on YOUR fitness and deliver a programme with intensities specific to you and your race target.
Every athlete is given 7 runs per week weighted by ‘Priority’. You then plan your week and execute your prescribed training in the same way you would were you being coached privately with the difference being it’s up to you to structure your week with the provided plan. The 7 runs supplied are tailored to your specific fitness so the right intensities are provided to ensure you achieve the correct ‘training state’ for each and every run regardless of your fitness or ability. You do not need to do all 7 runs. You set the training load (runs per week). Some weeks you might do as few as 3 or 4 runs. Fatigue will often be your guide however the plan will follow an easy-week/hard-week rhythm to help you recover, test yourself, and ultimately build your fitness.
