It definitely feels like something those covering a long distance are likely to look into. In fact I got into after <a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/2020\/01\/20\/jeffing-a-half-marathon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Jeffing a Half Marathon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/jeffing.jpg?resize=800%2C800\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/jeffing.jpg?w=800 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/jeffing.jpg?resize=300%2C300 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/jeffing.jpg?resize=150%2C150 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/54.155.211.39\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/jeffing.jpg?resize=768%2C768 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Basically it is a run\/walk technique which makes it easier to cover the distance and less likely to prevent injury. You can find out lot&#8217;s of information on Jeffing on this post. I am a Jeffer and do parkruns using this technique &#8211; you can find my experiences <a href=\"https:\/\/pinkoddy.co.uk\/blog\/parkrun-tourism-reviews-by-a-jeffer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is good because it isn&#8217;t giving up to walk, it is changing pace so it speeds up into a run and slows down into a walk. The walk is with purpose and not giving up. It means you can tell yourself that you only have to run for a short amount of time. Personally it makes me faster &#8211; even for a 5k time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Know the Timings for Jeffing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people use a Gymboss but I just use Intervals Pro on my watch.
