This study aimed to give a systematic literature review about the training of elite Norwegian long-distance runners (1500-10.000 meters). After a search in databases, we found 7 articles, that have systematically registered the training volume and intensity distribution of 13 elite runners over longer periods (n = 13). The results were the following: the best long-distance runners run 120 to 180 kilometers per week on average. The waist majority of this training (75-80 %) is done at low intensity (62-82% HRmax). Two to four sessions are done at the anaerobic threshold pace (82-20% HRmax), either in continuous or interval format during the base period, often done twice on the same day. One to two times weekly higher intensity sessions (>97% HRmax) are done, in form of short intervals (>800m) or short sprints. Longer intervals, above the anaerobic threshold (92-97 % HRmax) are rarely used during the base period. The training is closely monitored by a lactate meter or heart rate monitor. Before the racing season, in the pre-competition period, the athletes do fewer workouts at an anaerobic threshold pace and increase the number of sessions at a specific race pace.
