Here's your 5k to 10k training plan: https://gtn.io/10Kplan … Let us know how you get on! 🏃♀️🏃♂️
Any advice on tracking timing while running? Is there an app where you can pre-set times without having to continuously take your phone out to stop/start a timer? Thinking specifically about those interval sessions
Instead of 30 min …I will try 45 min
To 60…for me 10 k will take more than 1.5 hours
I trained for a 5K: the race got cancelled, so I ran a 10k practice run. Now I have 28 days to improve my time, which is terrible because I’m 75. I’ll try to condense your plan. Wish me luck
I ran a 5k on a treadmill after 20+ years of not running at all (injuries in there too), my next run was 9k because thats how long the trail was. I had been walking briskly for quite a while (which got boring hence the running now).
What is "hard"? Fast?
I set myself a 4 week goal… damn it.
Hey, today I managed to do my first 10k and I'm sooo happy! Thank you for this great running plan! ❤
This is absolutely phenomenal stuff! My race is 6 weeks out and this comes at the perfect time!
What do you mean by easy run for 30 minutes..( whether we shouldnot stop and run) whaat does it mean..can someone..tell me please
❤ Thankyou so much guys for such a perfect routine plan!!! , I can see real improvements in my running performance because now my body is getting enough time to recover, repair and adapt before i was putting too much overload upon my body, pushing hard every single day and i had shin splints every time i ran, the pain was terrible, I thought that i would never be able to run but following these routine plan i can see real improvements and now i am in love with running …really grateful !!!🙏😍 Love from India🇳🇪🇳🇪🇳🇪
Instead of 3-4 rest days might be better to add 1 or 2 recovery runs in as a substitute. Just help others blood flowing and maintain that base level for your engine.
Training for my half marathon I had two rest days per week, two recovery runs, two speed workouts, and the long run on Sunday’s. Really helped me build that base and I was shocked at the outcome.
Thank you so much for program running awesome!!!
I like this plan, it's not too complicated. Some plans have so many different types of sessions i I'd have to do research every time 😅
As a beginner runner I'm failing to grasp one thing; during this whole program is it allowed to walk inbetween? So let's say the 8km run is that interval and those 20min easy runs. Are those all interval or is it straight up running the whole distancetime limit?
Can anyone help me? What is HARD and what is EASY pace?
How to run a 5-10k extremely quickly=sparring
Thanks GTN! I just finished my first 10k following this plan and it worked great. Now I look forward to increasing my speed!
I’ve been stuck on 5 for a long time now, so this really helped
I have run six 5Km races and one 6Km race in the last 2 months. I run 5Km in approx 35min, easy pace for me, 7:15/km. According to the plan I would have to run 2 times a week a 30min easy run, that would around be 4.5Km twice a week. I usually run two 1.6km recovery run, one 3km run and a 5km long run on Sunday. I feel that I would drastically increase my weekly mileage. Should I stick to the plan or increase my mileage a bit ore before starting?
What is exaxtly the definition of an easy run? Do you have any specific heartrates goal to shoot for?
Crazy thing is….the 10k is just like the 5k but longer
Nice!!! I'll try it out and see how it goes lol
Thanks for the link. I’m excited to try this!
🔥🔥🔥
I ran a half marathon 2 days ago on 3900 elevation only hilly areas upwards and the 10k that i ran seems like nothing after it on a straight road
Where have all the Replies gone? Great plan for a 78 year old, who is only able to run 3 times a week without injury.
The farthest distance this plan reaches is 6k on week seven, and the week after is race day with 10k. How am I going to bridge this gap?! Is there something I’m missing?
I followed this exactly with additional strength training added in and ran my first 10K this past weekend, thank you so much for posting!
Exactly what I was looking for, Thank you !
Hy brother…i mean to run 10k within 24mint did i reach that tell me brother
