Just 5 Minutes of Core Work Can Help Build a Stronger Stride. Experts Recommend These 3 Simple Moves. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Busy runners often shove strength training—and core work, specifically—to the bottom of their priority list. Between mileage, work, family time, social outings, and recovery, core exercises can feel like one more task competing for a place on the schedule. Core work often ranks among the most overlooked parts of a training week, even though it only takes a few minutes per day to achieve big performance benefits.

The other hasn’t yet run double-digit miles at one time, but they get out the door four times per week, checking off three- or four-mile easy runs with a six-mile weekend long run. The first runner certainly has the flashier response to the question, “What’s your longest run?” But their training logs tell differe
