TOTAL WORKOUT DURATION (20 Minutes)
------------------------------
Start with a 5-minute walk to warm up. You can start easy, but by the end of the second minute, the walk should be pretty brisk.
----then----
Spend the next 15 minutes alternating between 60 seconds of jogging and 90 seconds of brisk walking.

Thank you for choosing a training program from Octane Athletics Training Systems for your journey to the 5k finish line.

Here is what you can expect:
- You will build your fitness, strength, and speed
- You will be adapting your body for race day
- You will increase your performance each and every week

Here is what it takes from you: CONSISTENCY. That is everything when training. If for some reason, you cannot get a workout done, move on to the next day. Do not stack workouts up and/or play make up. Just get right back at it and move on. Getting the workouts done is important. What makes them more important is that they are done with QUALITY.

I look forward to you finishing this program and having incredible success on race day. Believe in yourself and enjoy your journey!

If you have questions, every plan includes 3 FREE "phone a friend" sessions. What I mean is that you can email me at info@octane-athletics.com and I will answer your question up to three times throughout the program. You can add as many 30 minute consultations as you'd like for $39 each. If that is of interest to you, just email the same email address to set these up.

Thank you,
Coach Dave Jimenez
