This week’s run will get you used to running at your 10k pace. Running fast helps your body learn HOW to run fast and that it CAN run fast. It helps your mind/brain understand that running fast feels hard because it is supposed to be hard, but that you CAN run fast!

This program is for beginner and intermediate athletes that are already able to run a 5k. Athletes should be currently running at least 3 times per week accumulating at least 10 miles per week. The program will introduce athletes to 10k training, exposing them to principles of anaerobic, lactate, and tempo training.
