As people look for ways to unplug and touch grass, running-related searches are spiking: Searches like “run club,” “how to choose running shoes,” and “how to train for a marathon” have reached all-time highs this year.
Running a race requires grit, strength, and (a surprising amount of) organization. Fortunately, Search’s AI features make it easier than ever to get your race plan together. Here are three ways Search can help you make it across the finish line.
1. Create a training plan that’s specific to you and your neighborhood.
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned runner with over a dozen races under your belt, having the right training plan is key to finishing the race. AI Mode in Search can help you map out your strategy and develop a detailed plan. Select the Canvas tool from the plus (+) menu and ask it to build a schedule for you, recommending cross-training and strength-building strategies. You can also discover fresh perspectives from sites and creators across the web. Try asking, “Help me make a sub 4.5hr training plan for the Texas Marathon with different routes I can run around Montrose. I’m currently running 4x a week with my longest run typically being 7-9 miles.”
