A solid training plan equals athlete success:"My race went well, smashed my goal of 5:45 with a 5:04. The plan was great and have recommended it to friends. I will purchase a plan for the full IM next year."

This 12 week program is an Intermediate Plan 10k plan and for an athlete whose goal is to run a 10k in the 40:00-50:00 range. The schedule consists of 4-6 runs per week and it is run specific. There are 2 days of core training in this plan. Requirements: You should have good fitness over the past 6-8 weeks. Going into this plan you should be able to run 1 hour.
Your off day is Friday and your long run is on on Sunday.
Our programs are designed for the age group athlete who has a busy life with a full-time job, a family and/or other responsibilities. In this program, the longer workouts will be on the weekends, and the weekdays will consist of shorter workouts. During the training plan, there is testing every few weeks to assess your fitness and so you can re-adjust your Heart RateZones. If you don’t train with a HR that’s fine as the tests are still good training as you can measure improvement based on time and effort.
Our plans set YOU up for success. The main goal of this plan is to help you achieve your best race! Mike has been coaching for 25+ years and uses that collective experience to help each individual athlete be successful at any level. His passion for the sport and wisdom gained from coaching thousands of athletes goes into designing a plan. He has taken the guesswork out of training with this plan and looks forward to helping you too.
