Question 1

Can I track a running workout without a GPS watch?

Accepted Answer

✅ Yes, with the Campus app, no need for a GPS watch to track your running workout.
The running activity tracker allows you to:
Track the distance covered in real-time

Know your instantaneous pace

Receive vocal or vibration alerts with each pace or phase change

Precisely visualize your effort and recovery intervals

Track specific indicators such as terrain type or pace variations (e.g., trail)

📱 All you need is your smartphone in your pocket to benefit from complete and precise tracking, without a GPS watch.

Question 2

What types of workouts are there in this plan?

Accepted Answer

In this plan, we don't talk about speed, MAS, or endurance. There is no pace or distance goal, and we start with walk/run shifts to limit training load and prevent the injury from flaring up. In addition to running workouts, Campus offers you the option to integrate strength & conditioning directly into your training plan to optimize your training and support proper re-athleticization.

Question 3

After this plan, am I ready for any other plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes! After these 4 weeks, you'll be able to start preparing for a distance, or move on to plans that develop one of your qualities (speed, endurance, MAS, etc.).

Question 4

How many workouts are there per week?

Accepted Answer

On Campus, you choose!
👉🏻 We guide you with the best recommendation to progress, but the freedom is in your hands.
👉🏻 Your training plan is flexible, realistic, and effective, so you can train consistently and enjoyably over the long term.

Question 5

How many weeks does it take to return to running after an injury?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the injury and how long you've had it. Your recovery also comes into play because we're all different. In any case, returning after an injury is always fairly long and must absolutely be gradual. To avoid mistakes, we recommend choosing a Campus training plan designed specifically to support you during this delicate period.

Question 6

Should I see a doctor before returning to running after an injury?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for any joint injury, stress fracture (a tiny bone crack caused by repeated impacts), or persistent pain, the doctor remains the first point of contact. After that, and based on their recommendations, a physiotherapist can establish a protocol (a structured gradual return plan) adapted to your specific injury.

Question 7

Can I cycle or swim while recovering from a running injury?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if your doctor allows it. It helps you maintain your cardio-respiratory fitness. These low-impact activities let you stay in shape without putting stress on the injured area. But keep in mind that too much is always the enemy of good. An injury requires rest and a maximum limitation of the stress placed on the body.
