dCompleted yesterday. I think I’ll keep to this as a maximum for a few weeks. It feels good to have done it. Another 5K Jeff at PR on Saturday and some 4k runs next week. Feeling great.

Very well done, sounds like jeffing really suits you

I started Jeffing my runs on the advice of a physio over 18 months ago. I found my run times were the same and it dramatically improved my cadence.I've just started running on through some of my walks but I know that I'll mainly continue Jeffing.

It interesting how many ways there are too run.

Well done! Can I ask the ratio you Jeff?

I am a bit erratic: 3/2 twice then 3.5/2 then 3.5/1.5 then 4/1.5 or 4.5/1.5 and any mixture of the above. I am coming back from a break so I might go to 5/1 and eventually try to increase the running element (possibly with a decrease of my daily biscuit intake!)

Jeffing is a great way to rebuild running strength and rebuild fitness. I’d been jeffing 5K for 2-3 weeks recently and managed to run a full 5K at parkrun on Saturday. Still plenty of jeffing ahead for me.
