The TSS Based 10 Mile Intermediate Plan - 8 Weeks - Sub 8 Min/Mile Pace running plan is designed for intermediate runners. This plan uses rTSS as the primary metric when designing all of the workouts and workloads on a week-to-week basis. This is combined with pace-based zone workouts.

This plan is for athletes with an upcoming 10-mile race with an average pace of 8 minutes per mile or faster. Athletes will run 4x per week with 2 optional activity workouts most weeks. The plan has a moderate 2-week taper period leading up to the event.

This plan is best suited for athletes who:

- can run continuously for 60 minutes
- have completed at least one 10k race
- have a general understanding of pace zones and are comfortable completing an FTP test
- are comfortable with various types of running workouts (intervals, hills, etc.)

The plan is designed with structured workouts. Athletes who use a smart watch or device that is compatible with structured workouts will enjoy the ease of workout plans syncing with their watch and providing guidance during the exercises.
