Check Out 7 Tips for Mapping Out a New Route ##### Sport & Activity Certified running coaches provide seven tips for mapping a new run route, plus ways the Nike Run Club App can help. Last updated: 25 July 2022 4 min read  Sometimes, you just need to mix up your running route. Whether you're a gym-goer who prefers the comfort and control of the [treadmill](https://www.nike.com/ch/en/a/treadmill-exercise-benefits) or someone who logs miles at the same park every week, running routes were made to be refreshed and discovered. Read on for tips from running coaches on how to map a new run route, plus ways the Nike Run Club (NRC) App can help. "Mapping out your run in advance lets you ensure your runs fit the goal of that day's training", said [RRCA-certified](https://www.rrca.org/) running coach Laura Norris. "For example, if you have a hill run scheduled, mapping out your run confirms you are running a route with enough elevation gain. If your goal is a certain distance, mapping out your route lets you get in the distance without guesswork or extra laps at the end". ## 7 Key Factors to Map a New Run Route 1. # 1.Distance When you open the NRC App, you'll discover audio-guided runs based on time or distance (a 30-minute run or a 10K, for example). These runs are podcast-like sessions narrated by NRC experts who offer running tips, stories and inspiration throughout the run. Audio-guided runs found under the 'Distance-Based Runs' tab can help keep track of time, distance and splits. Bonus: In many of the runs, you'll hear encouraging words from four-time Olympic runner Shalane Flanagan, Nike Running Global Head Coach Chris Bennett and other Nike running experts. Looking for a Short Run? Check out the 2-mile run. Or [maybe more ambitious](https://www.nike.com/ch/en/a/best-running-shoes-marathon)? Choose the 8-mile run. If you prefer to run plan-free, the app uses GPS technology to track your route and show your location on a map (including where you were and where you're heading), so you can store the route and reference it for future runs. 2. # 2.Terrain When you venture out on a run in a new place, you may encounter grass, gravel, sand, mud and more. Running on different surfaces can benefit your training. "Every terrain has a purpose, and different grades and surfaces use different leg muscles and stabilisers", said Jessica Woods, Nike Run Coach. Softer surfaces can be more forgiving for your joints.

If you're used to mostly flat routes, hills will challenge your endurance while emphasising gait mechanics. However, if you're dealing with pain or an injury, routes with a ton of elevation changes could aggravate it. 4. # 4.Variety An important part of an enjoyable running routine is variety: different types of terrain and changes in elevation and speed. "The worst thing you can do as a runner is run the same flat route, at the same pace, every day", said [Anh Bui, P.T., DPT, CSCS.](https://www.instagram.com/runresilientlydpt/), physiotherapist and USTA1 running coach. "Running is predominantly a sagittal plane sport, meaning the body moves in one direction (forwards). The muscles in the human body then become adapted to only moving the body forwards, which increases the risk of injury". Adding more variety to your running routine can help build strength and keep things interesting. Trying different types of audio-guided run in the NRC App is another way to keep you on your toes. 5. # 5.Safety To stay safe on your run, be aware of your surroundings. If you're listening to music or an audio-guided run with headphones in, make sure you keep the volume low enough that you can still hear the noises around you. "I always take my phone with me and keep my head on a swivel", said Tammy Whyte, a RRCA-certified running coach in Chicago, Illinois. 6. # 6.Preparation It's important to be prepared for your run with proper gear, taking into consideration the duration and intensity of the run, along with the weather. "If it's hot and humid, you want to make sure you're wearing loose-fitting, breathable clothing, a hat and sun cream", said Bui. "It's also important to carry fluids and gels with you if you plan on running for longer than an hour and do not have access to water fountains".
