Tapering isn't time off; it's one of the biggest performance levers in your entire marathon build. 🏃

Our new guide breaks down what the research actually says about race-week prep: how much to cut your training volume (and why keeping some intensity matters), why most runners underfuel on race day without realizing it, the sleep habits that measurably improve endurance performance, and how to train your mind for the miles that hurt.

Start smart. Finish strong. 👟

We’ve designed our Learn to Run program to be the last “beginner” program you’ll ever need. 🙌

We combine expert coaching with a focus on longevity, ensuring you build a solid foundation that lasts long after the program ends.

Our in-person runs are paired with weekly topics designed to build your “runner’s toolbox”, covering everything from run technique and training principles to recovery and strength training.

By focusing on gradual progression, we help you bridge the gap from “not a runner” to confident and injury-free. 🎉 Plus, you’ll have a community cheering you on every single week!

📍Join us @ The Runner’s Academy Midtown (918 St Clair Ave W)
⏰ Monday and Wednesdays @ 6:30 pm
🗓️ Begins September 21st for 6 weeks

Here’s the big takeaway:

Your body doesn’t know your training plan. It doesn’t know that today is “long run day” because your calendar says so.

It only knows how it’s been loaded, consistently, over the past several weeks.

Is the 10% rule in running a myth? 🏃‍♀️

For decades, runners have been told never to increase weekly mileage by more than 10%. But a massive new study of over 5,200 runners published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine shows that weekly totals don't predict injury. Instead, a jump in single-run peak mileage relative to your last 30 days is associated with a significant jump in running injury risk!

As running physios, chiropractors, and coaches, we broke down what this new research means for your training and how to safely build distance without getting sidelined by runner's knee, shin splints, or tendinopathy.
