Mindfulness training for recreational runners
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a mindfulness program can help recreational runners improve their performance, breathing, and heart rate patterns. If you're a regular runner, this trial explores whether mental training alongside your running could enhance your physical abilities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a recreational runner who runs between 30 and 520 minutes per week (roughly 30 minutes to 8.5 hours weekly)
- You must pass a health screening questionnaire called the Get Active Questionnaire to confirm it's safe for you to participate in physical activity
- You cannot run more than 520 minutes per week—if you're training at a competitive or elite level, you would not be eligible
