I've just started running again (which i've kept up so far for around three weeks), for my fitness if anything. And basically I have a question, which I think should get some answers here -
Consider I'm training to be fitter for football primarily, what is more important: the distance I'm running? or the speed I'm running at?
I'm currently only running 1.5miles every other day, in quite a hilly environment, and it's taking me just a tad over 10 minutes to complete this run - which means i'm running consistently at around 8mph.
Is this an ok routine for my needs? Any advice would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!
