want to know the secret to run faster? It’s actually much easier than lots of running web sites make it seem! That’s because step one is to know your current running fitness level and then use that information as a guide to do speed workouts. Today I’m sharing the best RPE chart for Runners and a few funny RPE Running Charts to help you get started. Laten we gaan!
Many speed workouts for Runners posted online give you paces to run according to things like your 5K pr minus 15 seconds per mile. but if you don’t have a recent or applicable 5K pr time or are just starting out with these type of runs – it’s confusing, intimidating and not incredibly helpful.
If you’re new to running, new to speed workouts or getting back to it after time off – start here using the rate of Perceived Exertion chart for Runners (also called RPE).
How to start Running faster for new or returning runners:
Step 1: study the RPE chart for Runners and think about how each level might feel. how would you describe your last run using the chart?
You can use the fun running charts I posted if they seem much easier for you to picture and remember. This is a starting point to pay attention to how you feel and how much you’re pushing or taking it easy while running. After you get to know your body while running – you can step to the numbered RPE chart for Runners.
Step 2: Pay attention to how you feel while warming up, mid-run and during cool down. What was your RPE for each? note it in your running log ideal after each run.
Note any variables that may impact your RPE. For example: Was your run very hilly? That might indicate a higher RPE. // Were you running with a friend that’s a little slower? That might indicate a lower RPE.
Do this for at least a week and write down as lots of notes as possible in your running log. This will help you learn your body, current fitness level and see any variations that may impact your performance.
Step 3: use your RPE information to incorporate speed work into your training. depending on your current fitness level it can be a set speed workout or a few faster segments you plan into your current plan.
For Example: warm up at your warm up RPE. Then, run for x minutes at an RPE that’s higher than your easy pace. instead of trying to hit certain paces – you’ll goal for pushing yourself to the effort level that’s applicable.
