Plan Description
Train Smarter with a Simple, Beginner-Friendly Plan
This program is built with simplicity in mind—requiring little to no equipment while delivering a clear, no-fuss approach to training. Straightforward, effective, and easy to follow, it’s designed to fit seamlessly into your busy schedule.
Using Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE), the plan gradually builds your running and strength fitness through structured, time-based workouts. You’ll gain endurance, strength, and confidence in running—without feeling overwhelmed. Along the way, you’ll also receive guidance on pacing, recovery, and race-day basics so you arrive prepared, not stressed.

You should have either road racing or Spartan racing (recommended) experience and a willingness to commit and a positive attitude. If you meet these baselines, you’re ready to go!
