Serious running. Sustainable progress.

The Steady Split is an independent English-language running publication for ambitious amateurs racing from the road 5K through the marathon.

Our premise

Most runners do not need more motivation. They need clearer decisions: which workout matters, when a warning sign deserves attention, and whether a new shoe solves a real problem.

We translate sports science, clinical guidance, product specifications, and experienced coaching principles into actions that fit around work and life.

What we cover

Training, injury-proofing, recovery, and data-based gear analysis, plus a news desk for major road-racing championships. We favor search-friendly evergreen guides, then use a smaller share of the calendar for analysis and editorial perspective.

Who writes it

Articles are reported and authored by Miles Rowan, a dedicated endurance runner and exercise science analyst with extensive road racing experience.

Our editorial approach synthesizes peer-reviewed physiology research, clinical practice guidelines, and manufacturer engineering data into clear, practical training guidance. While our coverage is strictly grounded in published medical and sports science literature, it is provided for educational and athletic development purposes rather than individualized clinical prescriptions.
