10-Week 25-Minute 5K Training Plan: Crush Your PB with Expert Guidance
This 10-week training plan is designed for runners who want to break the 25-minute barrier for their 5K. If you already have some running experience and can commit to 4 days of training per week, this plan will help you build the speed, endurance, and strength necessary to hit that goal.

What You’ll Get:

Focused Speed and Endurance Workouts: A carefully structured progression of interval sessions, tempo runs, and easy recovery runs designed to improve your running economy, increase your lactate threshold, and develop race pace confidence.

Physiotherapy-Backed Injury Prevention: As a qualified physiotherapist and running coach, I’ve incorporated targeted strength and mobility exercises to reduce injury risk and keep you running strong throughout the plan.

Personalized Pacing Guidance: Learn how to pace your runs effectively to avoid common pitfalls like starting too fast or fading late, so you can execute a perfect race day strategy.

Efficient and Manageable: Designed to fit into busy schedules without overwhelming you, workouts are focused and time-smart, ensuring maximum gains with balanced recovery.

Proven Coaching Expertise: Benefit from professional coaching knowledge combined with physiotherapy insights, giving you the confidence to push your limits safely and effectively.

If you’re ready to break through your 25-minute 5K goal and unlock your speed potential, this plan offers the expert support and guidance you need to succeed.
