Keeping motion
Training programs for beginners and advanced runners
Even with all the restrictions and safety measures, you can still continue training and remain interested. Do you miss running training (or always wanted to start on Monday)? Try our beginner and advanced programs, which are tailored to your different running needs. Four weeks of exercise with a focus on movement technique, mental preparation, nutrition and recovery tips await you. What for? To improve your fitness, keep you motivated and prepare you for new running achievements.
Train under the guidance of AR captains
The training programs are curated by Doriel from Tel Aviv and Frein from Zagreb. These are the ones you will see during the adidas Runners' Instagram feeds. Leading fitness experts in their cities, they'll walk you all the way online.
Looking for motivation
It is always difficult to stay focused when entering a new sport regimen. To help you determine what motivates you the most, we recommend doing one mental exercise. This will help you tune in to the game.
Think about what prompts you to do something? The answer to this question will help not only to set the right goals for yourself, but also to form a habit, a daily mantra and a reminder why you are doing all this. It will come in handy when the desire to train is at zero.
It is also important to think about potential problems and obstacles that can cause you to turn off the intended path, for example, lack of time.
Forewarned is forearmed. By feeling for potential pitfalls, you can develop strategies to overcome them in advance even before you encounter them. This will allow you to be in a position of strength - to continue to act, and not waste time thinking "who is to blame" and "what to do." Plus, you will remain confident and motivated to keep fighting for your accomplishments.
How to participate
Our trainings will be streamed live on Youtube from Monday 22 June to Saturday 18 July at 3:00 AM Moscow time. Frain will wait for advanced runners on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, while beginners will learn the basics with Doriel on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Saturdays, the captains will conduct joint recovery training for all levels. Follow the news on our pages in social networks. Every Monday we will post a schedule with a description of the program for the week.
The footage will also be available on the adidas Running YouTube channel. Just search for “adidas Runners beginner training plan” or “adidas Runners advanced training plan”.
How to prepare for training
We want to make sure you have everything you need to effectively start a new training program.

And if you have long needed an excuse to update your sports wardrobe, go to adidas.ru in the "Sports - Running" section. And take a short online test (it will take no more than 5 minutes), which will help you to comprehensively assess the level of preparation before starting the program and set the right goals.
