Abstract
This study aimed to map the scientific production on training methods for 5 to 10 km long-distance running by means of a bibliometric analysis. PubMed, SciELO and Lilacs databases were used, and data were collected until December 31, 2019. The analysis included experimental studies with the intervention of training methods in runners. Data were analyzed descriptively. It was found that the first article was published in 1981 and 2018 was the year with the highest number of publications. The United States was the country with the highest number of publications, authors and journals. The most frequently cited methods were continuous execution and interval execution. Consequently, the main results were an increase in running economy, VO2max and a reduction in time trial.
